Right. To be more concrete, in your first frame your tag could create
for example an 'onload'-handler, which updates your second frame with
an request to an action (probably with extra parameters appended).
However, I vote for Petes suggestion to put an action in front of your
frameset. This action could fetch all your data, put it into the
request and let your tags render the results. It seems to me always a
good idea to use action for bussines logic (e.g. database lookups) and
tags for visual rendering only (drop down list with the results from the
action).
