XFrames is an XML application being developed by the W3C for combining multiple documents together. It is intended as a replacement for HTML frames. As of February 2008 it is only a W3C Working Draft.

Its creators hope to solve some of the problems associated with current HTML Frames. These problems include:
 * the web browser's Back button no longer functioning intuitively
 * losing the ability to bookmark (a.k.a. to add Favorites) specific documents easily
 * sometimes getting unexpected results when reloading the frameset
 * getting trapped in a frameset
 * not being able to distinguish the locations of the different documents which is a security issue.
