yes you can. Just see a iframe as a second browser window wich you can control from your main window.

what exactly do you wanna do with it?

jimthefiend · 01-02-2006, 10:58 AM

embed a forum into an iframe lol
gotta fit in with the site template so thats the reason behind the force frame question.

or is there an easier way to do that?

i just need to make sure that the interface sticks around and that no one can bypass it. i.e. sidebar etc.

like this:

pageLoc = self.location;
pageAdd = top.location;

if (pageLoc hahahaha pageAdd) {
contentSrc = escape(pageLoc);
contPage = 'index.html?' + contentSrc;
top.location.href = contPage;
}

Why don't you use something like vBulletin where you control the actual template of the forum. Or am I off in my interperation of what you want to do?

}

if you link a forum in your iframe and they have top.location in it then it wont work. It will break out of the iframe.

but thats still gonna be a stand alone page.

i need to nestle it into the site.

its side and top bars surrounding an iframe where all the content is diplayed.
i need the forum to do the same.

i thought if LOC and ADD were the same then it forced a load of the index which contained the shit in an iframe?
