Here's what works for me-- You might adapt this to work on your frames.


on the frameset page--index.php ---I put the following:
<?php

function build_querystring() {
 global  $HTTP_GET_VARS;
 $vars=array();
//I use a list of the variables I want to be parsed here so as to avoid some
mischief
 $varlist=array("var1","var2","var3");
 while (list($key,$value)=each($HTTP_GET_VARS)){
   reset($varlist);
    if (in_array($key,$varlist)){
     $key=trim($key);
   $value=trim($value);
   $vars[]="$key=$value";
    }
}

$dir="directoryname";
$thesevars=build_querystring();
$page=(isset($page) && $page !="")?"$page":"defaultpage";
$gopage=(!$thesevars=="")?"$page.php?":"$page.php";
$framepage="$dir$gopage$thesevars";
?>

Then in the frameset I make the url of mainFrame the value of $framepage

<frameset rows="100,561*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0"
cols="*">
<frame name="topNav" scrolling="NO" noresize src="topnav.php>">
 <frame name="mainFrame" src="<?php echo($framepage);?>">
 </frameset>


Then your links  are coded like so:
<a href="/index.php?page=whatever&var1=foo&var2=bar">

Maybe not the most elegant solution, but it works for me.
