Why isnt location.href() working?

I just want the new page to appear in an iframe on the current page instead of loading a whole new page.

Here's my code:

function salabim(id){
    var gotoo;

    var objid = document.getElementById("pgMaster");

    new Effect.Shake(id);
    return false;

    gotoo=id+".html";
    objid.src=gotoo;
    location.href(gotoo);
}

This doesn't work in any browser. What am I doing wrong?

You are returning false before you do anything with location.href.

I think the correct syntax is: 

location.href = gotoo;

Move return false; to the end, and use location.href like so:

location.href = gotoo;

You have a return false; in the middle of your function, so code after that return statement isn't executed.

location.href is an attribute rather than a function, use location.href = url instead.
