Setting form target to right frame

Hi,
I have two frames (left, right). I want to show progress bar popup in the right frame, when I click a link in the left frame. Currently progress bar pop up is appearing in the left frame.
How do I target it to the right frame?

Thanks,

Hi mplungjan:

Thanks for your response.
I am still having some difficulty in showing the content in the right frame:

1. In IE browser content of the frame is cutting from the top and the progress bar is also cutting from the top. (Please se attached screen shots)

2. In Firefox, a frame with 100% width and ~20% height is appearing with the frame border.
I want frame with 100% height and without the border. (Please see attached screen shot)
I have Iframe defined with 100% height.
<iframe style="width:100%; height:100%" name="contentAreaIframe"></iframe>

Could you please see what is wrong in it?

Thanks.

Got it working.
Used following style for the page.
<style type="text/css">
html,body { width:100%; height:100%; padding:0px; margin:0px; }
</style>
