If it is possible, you may put frame 2 and 3 into a separate frameset,
something like this
+----------------------------------------------+
| frame 1 |
+----------------------------------------------+
| frameset |
| +-------------------+ +--------------------+ |
| | frame 2 | | frame 3 | |
| | | | | |
| +-------------------+ +--------------------+ |
+----------------------------------------------+
Your form in frame 1 has a target attribute with the name of the new
frameset. Your script has then to output this frameset and embed links to
itself for frame 2 and 3, each one with a parameter to tell it which frame
it has to output and probably which dataset it has to process (or what ever
you need).
Well this mostly defeats the (small) advantage of having separate frames 2
and 3, so you could also use a single frame for it.
Or use no frames at all, so you don't have to worry about such anoying
problems and concentrate more on your application.
