Answer 1

Try this, in your parent frame set up you IFRAMEs like this:

Note that the id of each frame is passed as an anchor in the src.

then in your inner html you can access the id of the frame it is loaded in via location.hash:

Who Am I?

then you can access parent.document.getElementById() to access the iframe tag from inside the iframe
