I made a web application with asp.net 3.5 that implements the AIM method, which requires an SSL certificate. A web developer wants to integrate my pages with their site by putting my site inside of a frame on their website. I realize it sounds a little crazy, but the developer only make sites with Unix (like Drupal) and I'm trying to work with them.
1) Are there any security issues with this? or...
2) Should I bite the bullet and learn PHP or Java so I can move the commerce part of the application to their site?
Thank you for your help.

As long as there's no communication between your pages and the frames, or vice versa, you should be fine from a PCI perspective. As for whether the browser will pop up a security error if you have some of the frame parts secured and others not, I don't know - you'll have to test and find out.
For search engine ranking purposes, however, you should stay away from frames layouts. Find a developer who works with what you're familiar with, or give up and learn PHP. Everything that can be done with frames can be done better with HTML / CSS.
