Set up a simple Java Script frame buster on the header of the framed page and you will pop right out of the frame.

You could just block the site from accessing your content. Replace the page they iframe with a message saying "do not use this content without permission" based upon the domain or IP they are using to get your content.

You could also block their IP address, or make it so that your site returns something rude to their frame. Sticky-mail me if need help doing this... [edit]great minds think alike, eh, phrase?[/edit]

Blocking the IP won't work. You could block users with that site as a referrer, but why look a gift horse in the mouth? As Conard says, just use a framebust script and the visitor is 100% yours.

Put this code on every page on your site, just before </head> : <script language="JavaScript1.1" type="text/javascript"><!-- // hide from old browsers if (parent.frames.length > 0) top.location.replace(document.location); // Escape from any referring site's frame, but preserve one-click "Back". --> </script> I got this from a post on WebmasterWorld several months ago, and it has worked well for me.

Wow, you folks are fast :) I've tried blocking them with my .htaccess file but that caused other problems. The frame buster is a great idea. A quick search gave me this script <script language=”JavaScript1.1? type=”text/JavaScript”>if (parent.frames.length > 0) top.location.replace(document.location);</script> I don't use any frames myself, is there a downside to this script? A better one? Thanks again

Oooh, thanks hunderdown, I like the hide from old browsers addition :) No one is saying report them to Google? Interesting, but I do like handling it myself.

You seemed a bit nervous about approaching Google, so if direct action works, use it. It will also bust out about.com and other frames, as a nice bonus.

Well, I just tested it and they still keep a top frame? The new script shows up in the source of my page so I know that's refreshed. The offending site has this code <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript"> <!-- if (top.frames.length!=0) top.location=self.document.location; // --> </SCRIPT> Could that be to prevent people from breaking free?

| That is because Google isn't interested. Use the frame busters, they certainly work for me.

Re: my suggestion of blocking the IP, of course that won't work, sorry. Doing this is such an old fashioned technique, I forgot how it worked... :-) So, yes, framebusting scripts are the only way...

I also been using the script that milanmk posted without any problems. Here is a previous thread about frame busting. [webmasterworld.com...] My favorite post in that thread is #13 by foxtunes. "....Bustin' Makes Me Feel Good..." :)

| From my experience, that is only be a waste of time. Google doesn't want to play policeman. I've reported violations where webmasters have stolen content from my site in very large slabs and they didn't respond. Why should this be any different.

| Did you file a DMCA complaint? If not, why not? The situation here is much different from a situation involving copyright infringement (which requires a DMCA complaint). In this case, Google doesn't have to determine who owns the content; it merely needs to determine that the offending site is framing a third-party site with AdSense ads.

milanmk, are you saying ADD what you posted to what I posted, or use what you posted instead? And if it's not too technical, what's the difference? Thanks! I thought I had a solution, but apparently not....

milanmk, Is that all the script required or should it be used with something else. Today I also found a site using my content. I would like to find away to stop that. These people could have used one of my articles but no, they copied half my site.

milanmk, what's confusing me is that I already have this on my pages: <script language="JavaScript1.1" type="text/javascript"><!-- // hide from old browsers if (parent.frames.length > 0) top.location.replace(document.location); // Escape from any referring site's frame, but preserve one-click "Back". --> </script> Do I add yours below that, or do I replace what I have with your code? Sorry, but I want to make sure I get it right. I do not understand the syntax of JavaScript so when I use it I have to follow other people's instructions....

milanmk, Thanks I am going to place that script in. As I understand it, there may be problems with image search off the engines with that use frames to show them. But i can live with that loss, considering some other sites using my content in frames. That I don't like at all. I wish that I knew more about this kind of thing, then I wouldn't have to trouble everyone else with questions. Thanks Rob

hunderdown, Replace that bunch of line with my code. northaqua, putting this code you do no harm to your Image Search Engines except that your page will be immediately be opened in the main window rather than user clicking on the link on the SERP's.

One thing to be aware of: Framebreaking code can interfere with other ads on your site. If you're using display-ad code from an ad network or any other third-party ad server, test carefully before implementing the framebreaking code throughout your site.

| europeforvisitors, Yes I do take your point, however when Google bans Adsense publishers it does so to protect it's Adsense business interests. What I meant to say was that I don't think Google cares too much about policing search results that lead to copyright violators. However, I must agree somewhat that Google might see things diferently, if the violation involves the host frame page displaying some Adsense publisher's page. Although I must add that in my (recent) case An Adsense publisher stole over 300 words from my text and Google didn't seem to care. I didn't file a DMCA for various reasons (already posted on another thread)

| Google probably didn't want to be put in the position of interpreting what constitutes "fair use" (especially in the absence of a DMCA complaint).
