iFrame+ Collection Extension 1.2.5 - Updated on 09.06.2009

zinc · Post by **zinc** » Tue Sep 02, 2008 3:51 pm

These extensions add a nice cosmetic look to iFrame, where you can define images like buttons to scroll through the iFrame. It is my first attempt, so do let me know if you run into problems

Please use this (The latest 1.2.5 Updated on 09.06.2009)

Recompiled with version 1.5 of EXTB so now the images selected for the up/down/left/right will be placed in the "images" folder.

Thanks to Eddy + Pablo for pointing out a bug

I loaded an external website in the iframe and the layout from the website did strange.
The image moved to the right and the text also to the right out of the page.

I now the original iframe from Sjac cannot load an external site only internal page maybe its not possible with this script to load external websites.

Eddy You are right. It works for internal pages but not URLs. Looking into this....

Interesting. Still need to find out why it is happening.
The original program where I got the script from has this
issue so for the first time the problem is not me

Looking and working great,

Some suggestions to work on might be:
-Allowtransparency option in the iframe html(if you try to add it in the htmlfield now it doesn't get compiled with the script.
-The option to change the speed for the scrolling.
-Have the onmouseover,down,up and out available for the speed options.
This is if someone would like to use normal button press for the scrolling
So people only have to set mouseover,up and out to "0" and give the mousedown a speed number

Open webpage in InlineFrame <name>

Yes but you have to give the iframe a short name in the extension.

name=frame2

Than in your menu select open in another window or frame and type value= frame2

This work only with internal webpages.

Thanks for clearing that up Eddy

I am not sure what you are trying to achieve. The transparency works with this extension however the only thing that does not work with this extension is external URLs.

Got to thank "Eagle Eyed" Eddy for spotting the error at the first place.

In the latest version the Vi Frame shows no arrows but a X that the image is missing.

zinc · Post by **zinc** » Sun May 24, 2009 5:12 pm

You need to specify images for your UP/Down arrow. By default it is blank.

I get a X where a image should be. I didn't specify at all.......

Just put it on a page with just a link to a page. No modification to the arrow settings or whatever.

Only on the Vi Frame+ The Hi Frame works ok.

BaconFries · Post by **BaconFries** » Sun May 24, 2009 5:19 pm

neo you have to specify (add) a image from your PC it was made like this so you could choose how the arrows look if sneil had added arrow images you would be asking why cant I add my own images....hence it being left blank for you to add what you want them to look like.....

zinc · Post by **zinc** » Sun May 24, 2009 5:20 pm

That is what I am trying to explain. You need to specify images otherwise you might as well use the standard iFrame.

Ok then why is the HiFrame showing nice arrows by default?? They where left overs from another project probably with the same name.

But ok i get it.

I will insert my own arrows

I recommend you use GIF (Pref Transparent) I think IE gets funny when PNG is used!

zinc · Post by **zinc** » Sun May 24, 2009 5:30 pm

Ideally I should make them both into one extension but I cannot be bothered!!!

Apologies neo_webbuilder. I have now fixed that with VFrame+ and it should show the default arrows. Please re-download the file.

Thank you for your attention.

Akamaro;

This is really an iFrame with some cosmetics. Without getting too technical, This is the best I could suggest. If the normal iFrame works then the chances are this would work. I am sorry if you think I am twisting the matter but I cannot help you any further. Best to try it and see. I only made this extension for a mainly personal use as it suited my needs and never intended it to be a major project.

Thx for this great extension. But it seems to be impossible to scroll with the mouse wheel ?
Mouse wheel works when i enable scrollbars but it's less nice with scrollbars...
Can you fix it ?

Sorry, the amount of what this extension does is limited.

Thank you for your answer. Ok, i solved the problem putting a white rectangle just over the scrollbars
