fyi, I found a entry from Sean Corfield in the MachII forum:
Each of your frame src= "" specify index.cfm?event= with the appropriate event (e.g., navigation, main). Thereafter, your views will generate just the contents of one frame or another and your links will target the appropriate frame for the content request.

I've seen a couple of people very confused as to how to use Mach II (or FB4) with frames but I don't see where the conceptual difficulty occurs - this is exactly the same problem you'd get with frames on any dynamic site. Of course, I think frames are evil for a large number of reasons - and with dynamically generated sites in particular, you can easily generate standard headers, footers and navigation without needing frames.

Subject: [CFCDev] MachII and Frames

I just encountered a problem with MachII and frames.
My test Application contains 2 frames
    menu frame (actions, filters, paging, ...)
    display frame
 
My current solution:
I have a event called showHome. The view includes a frameset consisting of 2 frames.
The frame src for the menu and the display     ?event=showMenu
    ?event=showDisplay
 
I don't think, that this solution is perfect, because i am calling events outside of the controller.
Maybe, you have better solutions?
