First of all, Thank you Cedric for your help!

I am trying to follow the tutorial on iFrames and I am at a loss. I am a newbie and I don't
understand the code I have to write in the showframe widget. I have multiple links corresponding
to multiple pages opening in the same showframe (like you have illustrated in the tutorial) but I can only get one page to open.

Thank you!
Marisol

You have to provide me a link to the page you're referring to otherwise I have no way to find out what you're doing wrong.

Also you will have to wait until tuesday, I currently have no computer.

Regards,
Cédric

Hi Cedric,

to be honest, I was embarrassed to post a link! :oops: he he
This is a link to my second attempt. I used multiple snippets and wrote the 'showframe' code that you provided.

thanks for taking a look!

The codes per se work. The problem is the URLs (addresses) you entered

You entered:
http://web.me.com/marimarisolsol/SuryaW ... /home.html
which doesn't exist or hasn't been uploaded.

I don't know what went wrong anyway if the above would be right going to your iDisk/Web/Sites folder you should find a SuryaWIP folder and in that folder a Studio_Surya folder containing a studio_info_files folder with a page called home.html in it. Following the path on your computer you should find that there's something wrong somewhere. But where? Unfortunately I can't see what you uploaded and what not since I have no access to your MobileMe account (for obvious reasons) so it's something you would have to look at following the path on your iDisk described above and see what's not there.

Regards,
Cédric

Here's a second go at presenting my problems.

this is the page is question:
http://web.me.com/marimarisolsol/SuryaW ... _info.html

here is the code I have put in the widgets:

the widget on the link side:
<a href='http://web.me.com/marimarisolsol/rollover_images/map.html' target="_showframe"
onmouseover="document.sub_but.src='http://web.me.com/marimarisolsol/rollover_images/studio_info_rollover_18.gif'"
onmouseout="document.sub_but.src='http://web.me.com/marimarisolsol/rollover_images/studio_info_18.gif'">
<img src= 'http://web.me.com/marimarisolsol/rollover_images/studio_info_18.gif' width="153" height="33" border="0" alt="pricing" name="sub_but">
</a>
with duplicate widgets for each link and changing the info to match the buttons and href link

the widget on the showframe side for pricing:
<iframe
name="Showframe"
src="http://web.me.com/marimarisolsol/rollover_images/map.html"
style="width:499px; height:451px;
border-width:0px">
</iframe>
and I have made duplicate widgets changing the 'src=' link and keeping everything else the same.

Problem 1:
When you click on the links on the left the page opens up in another window and not in the showframe.
Problem 2:
The showframe widget that happens to be ontop when working in iWeb, is visible when you open the page.

thank you THANK YOU for all your help.

Problem 1: The links on the left open in the Showframe area under the "Studio information" title which I guess it's the way it is supposed to work.

Problem 2: I have to admit that I don't understand what you mean. The Showframe widget (Showframe iFrame) in which the pages from the left-sided menu open appears under the "Studio information" title which again I guess it's how it is supposed to work

Problem 3: You didn't upload neither pages nor images which are supposed to be displayed on the site (or did upload them to the wrong location). I would really recommend you to upload all needed files and to the right location. Otherwise you won't see that it works perfectly even if it does.

The links on the top open in the entire window as I guess you wanted them to do.

Bottom line: To me everything works exactly the way it is supposed to do. But you didn't upload the files (images and pages) at all or to the right location or entered wrong URLs hence they don't show up and you don't see that it actually works the way it supposed to.

However the page per se works as it is supposed to do.
