    When I worked with <frame> it has taking a long time ago (seven or more years).

    Because you didn’t post any html sourcode :-|, I created a theoretical situation:

    <html>
    <head>
      <script type="text/javascript">
       function nullRand () {
         //document.getElementById("frameBid").src = "myNewInternalPage.html";
           document.getElementById("frameBid").src = document.getElementById("frameAid").src;
        }
      </script>
    </head>
    <frameset cols="25,*" frameborder="no" border="0" framespacing="0" framepadding="0">
       <frame id="frameAid" name="frameAname" src="myHtmlFile.html" noresize>
       <frame id="frameBid" name="frameBname" src="" noresize>
    </frameset>
</html>

    SIn my theoretical file ‘myNewInternalPage.html’ you have to instert the method call

    <a href="#" onMouseOver="parent.nullRand()">An link</a>

    Note: frame is not approiate to show external content. That’s why iframe exists.

    Update:

    After a hard fight with the OP I got something to my hands. Here is a solution:

    1st: Replace the old Javascript code from ‘nullRand()’ with the new one

    function nullRand (linkObject)
{
  document.getElementById("frameBid").src = linkObject.href; // The new way to access to a frame
  //top.frames["center"]..src = linkObject.href; <-- The old way to access to a frame */
}

    2nd: Modyfiy the a tag -where the radio streams are listed- as follow:

    <a href="the Url from your radiostream" ... onMouseOver="parent.nullRand(this)">...</a>

    So it should work. In my eyes you should think about a new concept for your task.
