I think I know what you mean.

I think you were meaning that everything looks ok when you click a link, but the home page is not doing the same???

well keep your index page as just the frames, but have the main page called something different like start.html

here is what I would do.

have one page called index with your frames.
tell all frames to have what html file, but the main content page starts with your home page content, but call that something different like start.
then your frames will change when clicked nicely, then when you click the home link, make sure that changes just the content frame to show the start html page

I have made a small excel file to show what I mean
