 Posted: Fri Nov 26, 2004 11:39 pm Post subject: Calling External .php W/out Use of <iframe> |
 |
|
I am attempting to embed a "shout box" onto my site. The readme file for this code says to use the iframe tag in order to call the .php file for the tag board.
I'd rather not use iframe because only IE understands it. I played with <div> and <span> and also attempted a simple jscript to call in the file(although Im not very handy with js yet I may have coded it wrong) and neither worked.
Your thoughts?
Let me know if I need to include more info\data, thanks for your time! |

Hi ayenem and welcome to DEVPPL.
It could be done with DIVS adn CSS, and then just put your HTML/PHP code inside that CSS box, you can get scrolls and everything. But I don't remember how to do, but I have a friend who uses those scroll-boxes on his site, I will ask him during the day. |

I am familar with CSS and HTML so this should be pretty simple for me to test out. I'll try it some time with in the next couple of days and get back to you with an update.

| iframes, though not completely supported by W3C, are completely compatible with the mozilla browsers, opera, konq, galeon, etc. Not so say that iframes are in any way good (I personally hate the little buggers), but IE isn't the only browser to support them, almost all browsers do. |

I belive that all browers that support this kind of CSS, also support iframes, but Im not sure. |

Well I went with iframe and everything seems to be working fine so far. Im still worried it wont look how I want it to in other browsers though. I need to DL all the common browsers and test it on each, to see where I need to tweak the code.
Thanks for the support. This board gave the most replies. I post the same exact question word for word on two other forums and got less response there. Have a good week and I'll check back if I have any more questions. cya. |
