What You are trying to use is a non-standard, Netscape specific externsion to the HTTP-protocol; IE can't (obviously) handle this adressing technique.
What You shoud do is to set the target in the startform call
print $q->startform(-action=>"whatewer.cgi",
-TARGET=>"Top");
Another way to do it is with javascript:
<script language=javascript type="text/javascript">
function speciallink(new) {
parent.frames["top"].document.location = new;
} // -->
</script>
Call it with
onClick="speciallink('Whatever.cgi')"
(The script can be used on anything that supports the onClick event)
I hope this will help ; )

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
