In one frame I'll have narrative text, in the other I'm hoping to have various forms of interactive material related to the narrative. I know for one that I would like to have the standard PostNuke polls, for example. So I would have a page of text on the left and a poll about the text on the right.

So my question is how do I isolate the polls functionality to a single HTML page. Does that make sense? I want to have it function in my iframe, by itself so to speak, ie.. not in a block on the main page. So if the user clicks a poll response in the iframe and submits, the results come up in the iframe with nothing else. Understand?

You should look up some javascript.
the "target" of the first iframe will be directed toward the second.
You'll make 3 pages below I'm showing one, you'll need whatever.htm and another.htm(example)
One is
HTML
body
i frame src=whatever.htm name=2 width=500 height =400
hr
i frame src=another.htm name=3 width=500 height=400
/body
/html
after a link add a target=3 or 2(iframe name)
like a href=http://somesite.com target=3 click here /a

for forms(polls) you'll want to alter the POST and/or ACTION usually in the first line of the form.

If you are going to do it with Xanthia, maybe ask in the Xanthia & pnRender forum, Im pretty sure you could do that with templates and a bit of Smarty code. That way you might be able to do away with the iframes.
