Light Framework Page 
The portal provides a framework page for displaying light content for an external-facing portal. Light content is content that uses fewer resources than standard content, for example, because it does not use HTMLB or client-side eventing JavaScript.
The Light Framework Page differs from the Classic Framework Page in the following ways:
The Light Framework Page creates a single-frame page, avoiding the need for client-side JavaScript that would enable different frames to communicate with each other.
The Light Framework Page uses light navigation iViews, which avoid the use of resource-heavy HTMLB and client-side eventing JavaScript.
