iframe and netscape

[VBmim]

Hello

I have a bit of a problem. I use an iframe to display an asp page. Tested it on explorer 5.0 and it worked great! But netscape.... even the 6.2 version doesn't work! Is this possible? I have read several threads that state that iframes are recognized by netscape 6... I realy don't know what to do... is there an alternative for iframe? I have read that I could use ILayer (or something like that), does this also permit to display an asp-page?

tanks in advance

Mim

could you provide sample code or explain the problem being more specific?

Iframes should work. Gary

<form name=&quot;modellen&quot; id=&quot;modellen&quot;>
<table width=&quot;90%&quot; height=&quot;90%&quot;>
<tr><td width=&quot;50%&quot; align=right>
<iframe style=&quot;BACKGROUND-ATTACHMENT:fixed&quot; scrolling=&quot;auto&quot; id=&quot;HelmenIFrame&quot; name=&quot;helmenIFrame&quot; height=&quot;100%&quot; width=&quot;90%&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; noresize src=&quot;HelmOverTest.asp?gid=<%=txtgroepId%>&amp;sgid=<%=txtSubGroepId%>&amp;mid=<%=txtMerkId%>&quot;></iframe></td>
<td width=&quot;5%&quot;><br></td>
<td width=&quot;45%&quot; align=center>
<img src=&quot;images/AirohTransparant.GIF&quot; width=&quot;200&quot; height=&quot;101&quot;>
<br><br><br>
<IMG alt=Voorbeeldje height=223  id=voorbeeld src=&quot;images/background4.jpg&quot; name=voorbeeld  style=&quot;VISIBILITY: hidden&quot; width=230  onerror=&quot;document.voorbeeld.src=NoPicture.src;document.voorbeeld.border=0&quot; bordercolor=&quot;#cc0088&quot;><br>
<div style=&quot;visibility: hidden&quot; id=uitlegHelm name=uitlegHelm>Ga met de muis over de modellen om de helm te zien</div>
<IMG height=30 id=loading name=loading src=&quot;images/loading.gif&quot; style=&quot;VISIBILITY: visible&quot; width=80>

</td></tr></table></form>

voila that's it!
I hope you can get sense out of this...

woeps, I forgot to mention that this code is also in an asp-page...

a little more explanation:

I have this asp-site that list a number of helmets in different colors and models (the asp-site in the iframe). In this asp I Also preload the pictures of the helmets.

On the right of the iframe I show three pictures:
-one with the logo of the helmet (not very important)
-A second one with a picture of the helmet (whatever the user is pointing at)
-And the third one an animated "loading" gif.

When the iframe-asp-site has finished loading, the "loading".gif should disappear (with style.visibility = "hidden&quot and the helmet-picture should appear...

But nothing happens! I can't see a thing! the "loading".gif keeps on showing... I know my code is running because it takes a long time before it finishes loading (the preload-picture-function probably)... but I can see anything...

iframes pose so many problems.

Your problem seems quite complicated and setting up a test scenario is a bit hard for me.

If you could try to narrow down the problem and provide a working (buggy) example that doesn't require ASP or your entire enviroment I could try and help. Unless someone has more smarts than me in this field.

Hope you get somewhere. Gary

I had some time to do some testing, and iframe does work in Netscape 6. My problem seems to be elsewhere... I think it could be the tables or something like that...

Do you know if "style="visibility:hidden" works in Netscape? If no, I have yet another problem... (sigh...)

I have found my problem, but of course I don't have an idea (yet ) to solve it. The problem is the width en height properties in iframe. If I set them to numbers (eg 400) there is no problem but when I use percentages it goes wrong... I'll keep you informed!
