ya but...

see, the problem is not really being able to fire two frames (yes, js 
is the solution)... the problem is firing them from one perl script 
calculating/creating values that have to be displayed in two frames... 
as I understand... one script usually has one template associated with 
it (although it could have more templates... there is nothing in the 
docs that says it can't). What I cannot to is fire two scripts... 
because all the relevant calculations are in one script... I just want 
to take the results and divvy them up into two frames.

this may well prove my undoing.
