Research direction

Start by inspecting the current documentation HTML as displayed on boost.org and identify where elements are used. Compare the proposed AsciiDoc modernization with removing frames or opening the documentation in a new tab; done requires an agreed approach and a verified display without the reported breakage.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

We are working on updating the boost.org website, and when displaying the documentation of this boost library in that environment the display breaks due to the fact that <frame>s are used in the html. There will probably be a work-around, such as opening the docs in a new browser tab, but it would be preferable to either convert these docs to AsciiDoc as a modernization, or otherwise remove <frame>.
