Yes we have done this purposefully. The main app is served from Silverstream java appserver (soon to be transitioned to Websphere :) ). All of our reference content is in ZOPE. It's an internal web application so users are limited in bookmarking (security/HIPAA issues) and the other reasons that frames don't make sense for the general web populace don't factor in for us. We have multiple instances of ZOPE running so unfortunately I can't hard code any urls. I have to rely on the CMF and ZOPE to return the correct path for images and items via the absolute_url property or whatever property will give the correct url.

I have a webserver running on host:8200 which serves framed content. On occassion it loads one frame with content from my ZOPE server running on host:8300. When the ZOPE frame loads the links and icons within it are broken because they show up as http://host:8200/item instead of http://host:8300/item. If I refresh the URLS get corrected.
How do I get the correct URL the first time within a frameset?
You're loading from the other server intentionally, right? Well, I can't really say from experience, as I try to stay well away from frames, but perhaps you need to explicitly put the basepath in the documents from the foreign server:
<base href="http://host:8300/" />
You should check to see if Zope has already put it there, though.
Otherwise, maybe you need to put absolute urls in your images.
