Are you sure that the variable iFrame0 is actually pointing the iFrame DOM object and not some empty object or other element using the same ID (a DIV for example)? Maybe you could try to check the initial src to see if it's what you expect (i.e. '.../loading.gif').

Try to access the frame with the following:

var frameObj = document.frames ? document.frames['iFrame0'] : document.getElementById('iFrame0'),
    frameWin = frameObj.contentWindow || frameObj;

And then try to modify its src:

frameWin.src = '..../newurl.gif';
