You can avoid adding to the browser history by using:
frames[name].location.replace(url);
instead of changing the "src" attribute of the IFRAME element. However,
even using this method, the following problem still exists:

This is, to me, the most compelling reason to use XmlHttpRequest instead
of IFRAMEs: the obnoxious clicking sound. What the hell was Microsoft
thinking?

And browser support can be unpredictable. I remember reading that Opera
has trouble with this.
