4.4 The frames of the XRPS web interface

XRPS uses frames to subdivide the viewer window. This frame environment is invoked as soon as a PI has successfully entered their personal information and is registered as a user. Once done, the ''Proposal details'' page is loaded and the PI can start introducing the details on the planned observations. As illustrated in Fig. 4, there are in total four frames.

Figure 4: Screen shot of the top-level page containing details about an observing programme: the so-called ''Proposal Details'' page. This is the first page displayed in the frames setup of XRPS form.
