Actually you may want to check back with basic html at the "target"

Target won't work for me because the originating page with the
search box is not part of any frameset. I'm trying to get the
search results from that page to go to a page that is part of a
frameset.
Are you saying that the frame you want to have the search results
shown in doesn't exist when the search form is submitted? If it does
then it doesn't matter where the form is, just specify the target as
the name of the frame and it will almost certainly work.
If however you want the search to create the frameset when it runs
then you have a completely different problem which is best solved
using some sort of session. The script that handles the POST will
need to store the details of the search somewhere and output the
frameset. The frame that needs to contain the results would then
grab the details and run the search outputting the results.
That is exactly what I want. I apologize for the confusion. I was
having a hard time trying to put what I was trying to do in words.
But, yes, your second paragraph is exactly what I want to do. My
knowledge of PHP is very limited, and I've tried to search for
something that will do this, but couldn't find anything.
