hey, I need some help...does anyone know how I can create iframes?? I created this cool interface with photoshop 5.5 and I wanna use it on webpage. The setup is like this:
When the user clicks any of the buttons that are at the bottom of the interface, I want the link associated with that button to be displayed inside the interface. Know what I mean??
I saw this kind of feature on alot of websites, but I can't get it work. Also will the iframe feature work both on Netscape and Internet Explorer??

yeah if you wanna use an iFrame i suggest u got to the Macromedia Dreamweaver exchange and download a iFrame extension. Theres atleast two of them.

Hope this was helpful.

This is what you can do:-

<html>
<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
function loadIFrame(link) {
document.all.iframe.src=link;
}
</script>
<body>
<iframe name=&quot;iframe&quot;>If you don't see me, your browser doesn't support iframe
</iframe>
<br><br>
<form>
<input type=&quot;button&quot; value=&quot;First&quot; onclick='loadIFrame(&quot;bcd.html&quot;)'> | <input type=&quot;button&quot; value=&quot;Second&quot; onclick='loadIFrame(&quot;cde.html&quot;)'>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Netscape 4 doesn't support this code.

Hey LeonTang, thanx for the help, but I got an extension from the Dreamweaver site and I put the iframe inside of a Layer so I can move it anywhere on the page, even on top of an image...pretty neat huh?? LOL...
Ummm, do you know of a way to make the iframe change its background color/font, etc?? Does the iframe have those properties?? I wanna put a background image on the links that appear inside the iframe...kno what I mean??

Hi,

I haven't been in touch with dreamweaver for sometime already actually... and guess what? The version I have at home is version 2! hahaha... seems like it is time for me to upgrade my dreamweaver.

Take a look at this for iframe properties:-

I think this should be it. But just curious about something... if you set your pages background to black and load it into the iframe, I thought the iframe will have a black background too??
