HtmlUnit should be loading the frames in the same order that the browser 
would.  What error are you seeing?

Yes, JavaScriptConfiguration.xml is where the browser specific 
(javascript) behaviour is defined.  Very little of the browser specific 
pieces are currently implemented at present but that configuration file 
is where everything is set up.

To simulate a specific browser, you pass an instance of BrowserVersion 
into the constructor of the WebClient.  This will set things like the 
browser type and will be used by JavaScriptConfiguration to determine 
which behaviour to provide.

Hope this helps.
