Trusted Tester 12C Frame Title requires which attribute to be descriptive?

• A. Frame titles are optional.
• B. The frame title attribute should be used for styling only.
• C. The title attribute for each <frame> is descriptive.
• D. Frame titles are deprecated and ignored.

Answer: (C)

Descriptive labeling of frame content relies on a descriptive title for each frame. The title attribute on a frame provides a readable label that screen readers announce when the frame is focused, helping users understand what content the frame contains or its function within the page. Because of this, the title should be descriptive—conveying the frame’s purpose or content (for example, "Site navigation" or "User profile details")—and it should not be used to control styling. If a frame has no meaningful content, provide a clear label or reconsider using a frame at all. Statements that the title is optional, that it’s only for styling, or that frames are deprecated and ignored do not align with accessible framing practices.
