Here my question:
I thought, that form stack is created evary time - just because You open
new form - am I wrong?

Here next question:
What about security - or may be You doesn't use it?
In my applications I use security objects from built-in solutions of
Borland - it is very hard use it in frames because of authentication
should be made only once and here it will be for every frame. 
Have You any of such features in Your app?

I find that there is some possibility to provide security from application
using frames by using second hidden field - there is stored session id -
it can be passed to next forms and this way it is recognizeable where is
client. But I don't know if there is a posssibility to use objects from
this session in others sessions by refferencing to them

Any way I'm impressed by Your work and think Your notes will be very
helpful.
