Title: How To Embed Filmstrip In An I-Frame?
Post by: litup on January 06, 2005, 06:45:23 pm

Hello everyone,

I would like to embed the Filmstrip in an I-Frame.  Does anyone know how this can be accomplished?

Thanks,
Bryan

link to your page and more details on your question please: is the filmstrip meant to be inside the iframe (and if yes, what's this suppossed to be good for), or is the target of the filmstrip links meant to open in an iframe?

My end goal is to apply a fixed width and scrollbar to the filmstrip.  I tried using css overflow via this method:

I was not successful.. So, I thought it might be easer to just put the whole flilmstrip in an I-frame.  It would still remain on the intermediate image page and when you click an image the target would not be the I-Frame, it would be (I think) displayimage.php . Either way my goal is to be able to navigate the entire album from one page (intermediate image page) without disrupting the page layout.  For this to work the filmstrip config would have to be set for the maximum number of pics in any album.  Sorry for the inconcise posting :(

it won't be easy to just fire up the fimstrip in a page of it's own (and that's what an iframe is about). Imo you're doing this the wrong way 'round by using an iframe - instead, you should follow the track of formating the filmstrip as you need it by using css techniques. However, I asked for a link to your site you haven't posted yet...

Hi Joachim,

Here's the link:

I will take your advice and pursue the css method.  I was just hoping the I-Frame would be easier.
