document.parent.frame.location = reloading all frames

I have a simple script that uses next and previous buttons to change the
content of another frame in a frameset. Every time I load the target frame, the
frame containing the script is also loaded, clearing out all my variables. I
can work around this issue with cookies, but that seems far too clumsy to be
real. What am I missing?

Keep track of your variables in a non-changing frame (top.frameName)
or in the frameset document itself(top).
