In the <head> of my page, I have this:

function submitForm(var1,var2) {
top.mainFrame.document.my_search.text1.value = var1;
top.mainFrame.document.my_search.text2.value = var2;
top.mainFrame.document.my_search.submit();
document.search_form.submit();
}
</script>
If I type in a word in the search box http://beta.menashalibrary.org/about
and hit enter, it searches the catalog just fine, but then just
replaces the current page with the search results. If I click on the
SEARCH link with the javascript, it does nothing.
It looks like you haven't adapted the example I gave you to conform
to your page/form structure.
top.mainFrame.document.my_search.text1.value = var1;
The frame you are populating may not be named mainFrame
The form in your destination frame may not be named my_search
The input in you destination frame may not be text1
You have to modify these areas to suit your application and add or
remove more as needed.
So, I had this all wrong before. Basically, I need two forms, right?
One on my originating page, and one on the page within the frameset I
want to pass the values to. Correct?
My form, which I named my_search has one input field, which I named
query. In the javascript, I put in this:
<script type="text/javascript">
function submitForm(var1,var2) {
top.mainFrame.document.my_search.query.value = var1;
top.mainFrame.document.my_search.submit();
document.search_form.submit();
}
</script>
In the framset named mainFrame, I have a page which matches the form
on the originating page.
Am I on the right track? When I click on the search link, nothing
happens.
