I come to the monks like normal in need of some help. I have a internal page where I work and on the page it has 2 frames Top and Bottom. Top is an html doc that refreshes it self every x seconds. The bottom is a form that is used to write into the top.html file. On the bottom I made a button to pause the top from refreshing. What it does for right now is remove a part of the meta tag <M that causes the top to refresh. I used the CGI.pm to target the top frame. This works in Netscape but it doesn't work with IE. 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use CGI;

$q = new CGI;

open(INFILE, "<top.html");
$filesize = -s INFILE;
read(INFILE, $wholepage, $filesize);
close(INFILE);

$wholepage =~s/<M//;

print $q->header(-target=>'Top');
print $q->p($wholepage);

Does any one know how to do this same thing in IE?

Thanks
