Internal links in noframes

Are internal links in noframes followed and do the transfer PR?

Are internal links in the noframes section of a frameset paged followed by google and if so is PR shared? How about external links in the same area?

Thanks!

Hi SEOgle, Welcome to WebmasterWorld.

Google will follow the links in the noframe section, unless there is a good reason to not following them (JavaScript links, redirect, META nofollow, file larger than 101K, etc). There is no difference for internal or external links. Since the noframe section is normally in your home page, external links are rather unusual.
