How do you close a page that has three frames and use a hyperlink to return
to the home page?

Hmmm, I am sure I have done that. (I just stopped using frames on my site,
so I can't test so easily)

I think you can just use location.href = 'index.html'

e.g. <a href="" onclick="location.href = 'index.html'"
target="_self">Home</a>.

If index.html is itself a frameset, it should open it and its frames. If
not, it should just open it alone. target="_self" should ensure that the
current page is not kept open, but overwritten with index.html

Anyway, try it and see.

I'd have though it is the same method as any other page - with the "X" in
the top corner of the window, with File > Close.??

If that's not what you mean, then please explain further.

Use a link similar to:
<a href="index.htm" target="_top">Home</a>

In the hyperlink dialogue, set the target frame to _top (whole page)
