It's not written right and It would have to be called by a function.
Also if your loading into a frame / /iframe you have to give the frame/iframe an id and then open
your page in the frame / iframe

So let's for example say that your frame or iframe looks like this:

<iframe id="container" align="center" width="80%" height="80%"
style="border-style: solid; border-collapse: collapse; border-width: 1;"></iframe>

You must tell the script "where" to write the file. In this case it writes it to "container" which
is the iframe with the id "container."

function load() {
document.all.container.src = list.htm ;
}
