It works like this: in the frame, you click a link like 
blah.jsp?session=32423&menu=2312, so the server knows which menu you want 
to open. However, blah.jsp does not return the frame, but the whole 
frameset, and this frameset contains the same frame URL as before. The 
server knows your session, so it knows which menu you want.

Actually you can use this server with Netscape if Javascript and Cookies 
are turned off, but it depends on your cache setting if the new menu 
appears. So I'd agree that the server is currently a bit broken in this 
regard. However, I've no control over it, my job is only to index it...

You can also use the server with cookies, but even with the latest htdig 
snapshot indexing it doesn't work, because for some reason you still get 
the non-cookie version of the frameset (the one with session ids). 
However, even if that worked I guess with cookies there would be the same 
problem.
