How about having the top frame submit to itself and use javascript to submit
to the bottom frame? Something like:
<cfif isDefined("FORM.formSubmit")>
<script language="javascript">
<!--
function submitForm() {
myForm.target="otherFrame";
myForm.action="other_action.cfm";
myForm.submit();
}
-->
</script>
</cfif>
