Hi,

i want to include a page into another - and to get round the compatability problems - im setting an iframe inside a layer - so that it works on both old and new browsers (incompatible browsers just ignore either one of the tags - its displays perfectly...)

this works well in theory - but im having trouble...if i write :

<LAYER NAME="iframe1" SRC="http://www.siteorpagetobeincluded.com" ALIGN="top" HEIGHT="150" WIDTH="95%" HSPACE="10" VSPACE="10">

</LAYER>

the included page just 'breaks out' of the layer - and resizes to what ever the page is - normally to full screen...

it works very well with the Iframe - things stay where they are put - but the layers are'nt playing ball...

why not...?

Thanks

Harley

Try using an <ilayer> tag instead of the regular <layer> tag -- and then nest the <iframe> tag inside.

Ha - thought of that and tried it - still doesnt work...

surely both layers and ilayers are able to have size attributes...?

its crazy...!
