Pages appearing in the wrong frame

I am quite new to web development and am struggling with something that seems like it should be fairly simple.

I have a page that uses frames. In the left hand frame a menu page is displayed. Clicking on any of the menu optins displays a new page in the right hand frame. So far this works ok, however I have tried to add a drop down option to the menu page. Clicking on any of the dropdown options displays the desired page, but in the left hand frame.

The code of the 2 pages is below. I would be very grateful for any help and advice.

Thanks in advance
Ian

The main page:-
