presentation, that is what your style sheet is for

ELEMENT || CLASS || ID { text-align: center; }

You've spoken to every one of their visitors/potential visitors?
Personally, I'd much rather a site that works than one that looks nice.
One that does both is even better, of course.

IIRC Google can index (some) Flash these days, but I'm not sure, and
*can* doesn't mean *will*. The issue here is more one of visitors
actually being able to use the site.

So your clients think it makes commercial sense to lose potential
clients? It's their decision I guess.

Yep. I could not agree more. http://www.bca.org.au is a prime example.

If that's the case. Then it's in your best interest to get rid of the
frames.
not how they index in
> google

Then how the hell do you expect people to find your site. Considering
the Mighty Google is one of the most (if not the most used SE's in the
world) I would be doing everything poesable to try and get indexed. Not
the other way around.
(or for a bit, but I make sure everything is reachable via text
> links)

Pointless really. If you are going to use frames you might as well put
a bit more effort in and make your whole bloody site inaccessible!.
The point is. it's still harder for the SE's to find your content if
it's hidden in a frame.
so that's no option to remove..
What. The frameset or the Flash, which I might point out that 10% of
your visitors won't even see.

It doesn't work right, at least anymore (-if it ever did.)

Contrary to popular belief, it is believable.
