Controlling frames from w/in an iframe

Can content displayed w/in an iframe control the content of another frame on the same page?<br />
<br />
So, let's say "default.htm" is divided into 2 columns: A & B. Within column A is an iframe that pulls "mini.html". Can a link in "mini.html" switch content in column B if column B is set up as a frame? Does that make sense?<br />
<br />
I want to use an iframe b/c the content to be displayed only needs to take up a portion of column A.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

J<!--content-->I found the following page, which seems to answer my question: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.trans4mind.com/personal_development/HTMLGuide/iframes3.htm">http://www.trans4mind.com/personal_deve ... rames3.htm</a><!-- m -->. />
<br />
I personally dislike frames so I'll be looking for a better solution.<!--content-->try this <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.trans4mind.com/personal_development/HTMLGuide/iframes3.htm">http://www.trans4mind.com/personal_deve ... rames3.htm</a><!-- m --><!--content-->Put this after <body> in the window where you want your iframe:<br />
<br />
<p><iframe name="I1" src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"littlewindow.htm" width="200" height="150"><br />
</iframe></p><br />
<br />
Put this after <body> in your iframe:<br />
<br />
<p><a target="main" href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"http://www.htmlforums.com"><br />
A great forum</a></p><br />
<br />
In this case the main page (where I want the link to show) is called "main". You change it so it suits your site.<br />
<br />
Good luck, amigo! ;)<!--content-->
