in reply to a big mess... (.cgi / frames question)
What are you refreshing the frame to? It may be as simple
as telling the script not to send a document with <frame> in
it, but the actual <frameset>. (If you are getting multiple
frames in a frame, you are getting that frame as having more
frames when it's reloaded.) Check that you are not
reloading the entire (initial) frame html into that particular
frame.
