Yes, you can do this. It's a matter of having the ACTION attribute of the form tag set to the overall frameset page. You don't have to specify what frame the variables are sent to. You pull them into the frame you want later.
Within the frame where you wish to call the form variables to, just code it like any other action page you would use and scope your variables as form.variable. My whole site is in frames (as a matter of making use of two free services because I'm thrifty) and I really don't code anything different. No probs so far. Outside of the reason I do this, I'm not sure why you want to do this on a corporate site. Is your top frame your navigation? Why not call that via cfinclude? I'm just curious about why some people still use frames especially when coding in a dynamic language like CF. ########################## Guy J.

The form results generate a report, so I need the action page to open in a new window with a stationary frame at the top for the header and the bottom will be the actual results.
