The code you posted above goes in the index.html page.

You can put whatever you want on the left.html and right.html pages :)

You make the left.html and right.html using normal HTML (http://www.lissaexplains.com/html.shtml#setup). You don't put the frame code on any other page.

I'm not sure what you mean by this question: do i have to make "lets call it wvangels page" for the left frame and the right main page to go on to it

Let's say you want the links on your left side and the main page on your right. You would need to target your links so they will open up on the right side. To do that, here is an example:
<a href="http://address you want to link to" target="rightside">your link name</a>

first: what host are you using?

ok this is a bit how it works:

put this on your index.html page:

<html>
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
</head>
<frameset cols="20%,80%">
<frame src="left.html" name="leftside">
<frame src="right.html" name="rightside">
</frameset>
<body>
</body>
<noframes>
<a href="your main page.html">Click Here</a>
</noframes>
</html>

then put this on your left.html page:

<html>
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
</head>
<body>

text for left frame here

</body>
</html>

and replace Text for left frame here with the content you want to appear in your left frame.

then put this on your right.html page:

<html>
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
</head>
<body>

text for right frame here

</body>
</html>

and replace text for right frame here with the content that has to appear in the right frame.

Now try to view the index.html page and see if it works :)

Love,
Mirna

have you tried opening index.html? because that page is your page with the frame coding on it
