Hi,

PHP is not really aware of your frames.
PHP just gets a request in and produces an answer (HTML most of the time).

So this is maybe not the best newsgroup to ask.

To 'post a form to another frame', or better put: 'to ask the browser to
display the results of a post in another frame' use the 'target' - keyword
in your form.
eg:
<form action="bla.php" method="POST" target="anotherframenamehere">

To create a timing effect (like your 10 secs), use Javascript, look for a
function window.setTimeOut().
Beware however, you'll need JavaScript for this, which of course CAN be
disabled in the client browser.
