Here is your frames and codes i have done up with simple tests. To show you were your targets will end up. Please make these test htm's for yourself then see how they work. It will solve your problem i think.

If this does not do what you want it to do please try and explain more clearly. As i have it what i think you are saying is that you want your product to show up in the large frame on the right. And what was happening in your code was product was showing up in the lower left hand frame. Or product.htm was showing up in a whole new browser window. If the later is the case it was because you were not targeting to the frame on the right you had no target. so it was just opening a new frame. that's what it did for me. Create the tests i present above then click the links you will see how the frames work and go where you want.
If this does not solve your questions feel free to give more description to what you want and what the problem is.

Well i think my answer answers his question his question is rather confusing. He says it opens a new window all together. And when i ran his code the only thing that did that was when it was trying to go to the right hand single frame. Whcih if you look above he had no target name for it only a src. I don't know if that's what he wants. but we'll see if it solves his delema if not perhaps he'll offer more insight into what he needs. And as oyu can notice the differance in my post is mostly the aiming the target at the right hand frame. As there he had no target name. thanks for the vote of confiedence andriv. I noly hope my examples fully help himand show him what he needs done.
i think you've wrote a little mistakes .
you wrote in the frame1c1.htm i have the following
<html>
<head>
<title>This is frame1</title>
<body>
<a href="http://xxx.xxx.xx.xx
</body>
</head>
</html>
you should type just like this :
<html>
<head>
<title>This is frame1</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="http://xxx.xxx.xx.xx
</body>
</html>
because tag <body>..</body> is not allowed in tag <head>..</head>, you've to separate them.

The code to target that window is correct. Your problem might be because you are confusing the browser. When you first call the frame you should get an error message because you are not calling a src in the "framesec". If you want to be blank the create a blank html and call it in your frame html and see if that corrects the problem.
