As mentioned, you could use jQuery or another library to retrieve the contents of the HTML file and populate it into the div. Then you could even do a fancy fade to make it look all pretty.

http://docs.jquery.com/Ajax/jQuery.get

Something along these lines:

$.get("toframe.html", function(data){
  $("#tabs-1").html(data);
});

edit.. you could prepopulate or onclick you could do the get dynamically

$("#tabs a").click(function(){
   var pagetoget = $(this).attr("href");
   $.get...
})

If you prepopulate could have three containers instead of the one you have now, 2 hidden, 1 display, and the click functions will hide them all except for the one you want.

The get is less code though, easier time.
