Almost all mainstream browsers do not support the longdesc attribute.
Definition and Usage
HTML5 does not support the <frame> tag.
The longdesc attribute specifies a URL to a page that contains a long description of the frame's content.
Tip:Due to very poor browser support for the longdesc attribute, there is no need to use it. If you need to provide a long description for a frame (if necessary), simply create a link to the description page (the link is visible to everyone).
Syntax
<frame longdesc="URL">
