I am currently working on a site redesign, using flash to make a prettier menu, and I have it set up to use iframes, an example here: http://draconusit.net/flashindex.htm This setup works wonderfully in firefox, but if you open it in ie, any version, it opens the iframe in a new window, killing the effect. I put pages from the origional site in the iframes as an example. Can anyone help me determine why this is happening, or if there is a better way to do what I am trying to do? Thanks
I don't know what it is you are trying to do, but I can say stay away from iFrames. You might consider trying as an alternative using DIV and CSS. It will accomplish the same thing... <div style="overflow: scroll;"> your content here </div> Code (markup): You can also tell it which scroll bars to show or hide using overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: scroll; etc etc... if you could be more clear as to what you are trying to do I may be able to help you out a bit better.
But how would I control such a thing with the flash menu, that is the reason I tended away from that.
Basically, I am eliminating the headers and sidebars from all the body content, and the body content loads in depending on which menu item you click
My flash designer has been out of town for a couple of weeks, so I am playing with flash to catch up with it, and I liked the idea of incorporating a few flash elements in my pages to simplify things and give it a more user friendly appearance
