you cannot replace the main frameset using HTTP headers in the
individual frame pages. HTTP headers do not allow for this because
frames are a feature of HTML, not HTTP. therefore you must use HTML or
javascript techniques to get a single frame to change the overall
frameset.
however, for what it's worth, you can replace the main framset using a
header in the main frameset page itself, if you make that a php script
and use the header() function. (which means the answer to your second
question is yes)
