Ok I got a question you guys might be able to help me out with.
I want to add dynamic content to a site that does not allow php or cgi on the host. I was thinking of using another host and puting a php script on that site then use an iframe to put the content into the site that does not allow php or cgi.
So if I do this is there anyway to get search engines to see the content as part of the site that does not allow php or cgi?
I saw this code on here when I was searching around.

<iframe src="framed_page.html" width="300" height="300" scrolling="auto" frameborder="0">
<a href="framed_page.html" target="_blank">Click here if you use some old out-dated browser.</a></iframe>

I was thinking that would not help the site without the php or cgi just the site that it is hosted on.

So what do you guys think? Any ideas or suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks,
Rick

That will just get the page on the host allowing the php indexed and ranked (somewhere). It won't get the page containing the iframe code to perform as if the content were on it.

Meaning for example, if you're trying to use a free host to take advantage of the instant ranking benefits but they don't allow php and you add the php to your own domain/server then use an iframe on the free host... the search engines will not see that content as part of the page on the free host.
