(Whiteboard: [TESTCASE] shashi@narain.com) 

In a complex frameset document, links with fragment IDs to other frames don't
work.

Load page, click on "Manufacturers" button (upper left). Click on a
manufacturer's link. Nothing happens.

Took a look at the problem using Nav4.51 I did a "View Source" of the frame that
contains the "Visit Their Site" graphic. The code shows...

<A HREF="http://www.3m.com/">
<IMG SRC="../../../Site/Graphics/Visit.gif" WIDTH="84" HEIGHT="17"
ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0" NATURALSIZEFLAG="3">
</A>

In Nav4.51, when the graphic is clicked, a new window is opened with the
Manufacturer's site within. But if you look at the anchor tag above you'll see
no target attribute. This will explain why M7 is not doing it corectly since it
has no idea where to display the page.

The target for this URL comes from this tag up in the head:
 <BASE TARGET="_blank">

This is opening a new window for me, like it should.
I tested on today's build, Linux and Windows.
