This sounds extremely goofy to me, but I'll take it on faith that you
actually want this...

but it will work, and most closely conforms to what you seem to want...

resultsmain.php
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<?php
  $searchkey = "Search key from user input.";
  /* Put code here that just figures out how many answers there will be: */
  $rowcount = 1; /* Change this line to other numbers to test logic. */
?>
<HTML>
  <HEAD>
    <TITLE>Main Page - Uses Frames</TITLE>
    <?php
      if ($rowcount == 1){
        echo("<FRAMESET COLS=\"80,*\">\n");
        echo(" <FRAME SRC=toolbar.htm>\n">
        echo(" <FRAME SRC=onerowframe.php?key=$searchkey>\n");
        echo("</FRAMESET>\n");
      }
      else{
        echo("<FRAMESET COLS=\"80,*\">\n");
        echo(" <FRAME SRC=toolbar.htm>\n">
        echo(" <FRAME multiplerowframe.php?key=$searchkey>\n");
        echo("</FRAMESET>\n");
      }
    ?>
  </HEAD>
</HTML>

toolbar.htm
-----------
This is the toolbar.<BR>

onerowframe.php
---------------
<?php
  /* use $key to perform the actual search and output the results. */
  echo("One Result for key $key<BR>\n");
?>

multiplerowframe.php
--------------------
<?php
  /* Use $key to perform the actual search and output the results. */
  echo("Multiple results for key $key<BR>\n");
?>

Dislaimer: I've never done this, and never will, but it should work.
