Target frame with PHP Include()

[GB_001]

Is it possible to target a frame with a PHP include();.

 

Thankyou.

The only way you can do this is to put the php include inside the proper section of HTML code (I'm not real familiar with frames, so I couldn't tell you exactly how to do it).

Sorry,

But can you please elaborate on how I could do so?

Is it a Frame set, or an Iframe?

[GB_001]

It's in an iframe but I want it targeted to the parent frame.

Why Not Just put the include in the parent frame?

[GB_001]

Because the link being click is suppose to affect the iframe and parent frame.

So what Exactly are You trying to do?

[GB_001]

Basically in the iframe you click a link that passes a variable to another page that you gain from the page before, then it updates the database and then opens a DHTML window in the parent frame.

okay Is that what it does, or what you want it to do?

[GB_001]

That's what it does, but the DHTML window appears in the iframe, and I want it to be included in the parent frame.

To get page inside the iFrame, have you HTML to set up the page and the frame as normal then use

 

<iframe src="<?php include ('page.dhtml'); /*or whatever*/ ?>">

 

or do you not want it in the iframe?

 

In theory you can use the target element of 'a' <a href="whatever.dhtml" target="_parent">.

Thankyou, I wanted it in the parent frame though.

Also, I tried targeting the parent frame with an <a href> tag and it redirected my parent page, so the only way I can do it is through an include.

Bump,

Still not solved.
