in reply to CGI: frames & maintaining state across CGI scripts

Yeah, what you want to do is pass some sort of session identifier to each frame. This will probably involve you writing session management capabilities into your script. A la:

print $query->frameset({-cols=>'25%, 75%'}, frame({-name=>'left', -src=>"./left.pl?id=${identifier}", -method +=>'POS +T'}), frame({-name=>'right', -src=>"./right2.pl?id=${identifier}", -act +ion=>" +./right2.pl", -method=>'POST'}) );

Then left.pl and right.pl know which session to lookup from your backend storage.
