Actually this is defined and reliable behaviour (HTML4, section 16.5).
The same goes for <object>. Hooray!

Or, if you were lazy and didn't want to make the script output JS-or-HTML-
depending-on-the-query-string, another possibility would be to give
non-iframes browser a plain HTML link. The content wouldn't appear on the
page bug it would still be accessible.

...or, specifically to Netscape 4, <ilayer>. (shudder)
