There's no such thing as an HTML file that can "only be opened in Netscape". I would suggest you attempt to validate the HTML file in question with a tool like the one found at http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/.
If you want to open an instance of netscape in a frame in Internet Explorer, I'm pretty sure that's not going to happen; a frame is not a context in which an application can run. A frame is simply a means of displaying mulitple HTML pages within the same browser window.In general, if you want to have a link in Frame A open a document in Frame B, you've already answered your own question: you use the target attribute. If the frameset is defined as
Then a link in frameA that should open a document in frameB would look something like this:

cross browser navigation doesn't seem possible at this point in the browser wars. The only thing you can do is open another instance of IE from a page viewed in IE.
you could try an open(url,"name",specs") in javascript where the name would be the name of the already open netscape frame.
example have a netscape frame already open called "here" and then use the code in the IE page doing the following
open(thehtmlpage.htm,"here");
and see if that works.
