This how it works, specially when you target from another page/frame.

Maybe you should think of redesign your site to not use frames if anchoring
into the page like this, think most clients won't reload the page if the links
are in the page itself.

Using CSS/JavaScript can make it look like if it was framed and you can also
include AJAX if you want to load parts of the page at the time.
