Simon Burnett, Dhiraj R,

Make sure you reference frames by going to the parent. 

For example:
<FRAMESET>
  <FRAME name=header src="head.htm">
  <FRAME name=main src="mypage.htm">
</FRAMESET>

you can reference the frames from the source html files by using:

parent.frames[0].name ---> returns 'header'
parent.frames[1].name ---> returns 'main'

This works in IE. Not tested it in NN.
