Hello, a newbie here
I have an iFrame which loads fairly slowly sometimes. Is there a way to put a background color or a graphic in there first and then have it replaced when the page for the frame is finally retrieved? You can't get to the page from a URL because the site is on a NetSuite server (which is why I have the section which my co-worker edits hosted on a different server). So go to http://mtdmarketing.com and then click the Products/Services tab. Scroll down to the heading "Snapshot of Latest MTD Counts..." You will see a big blank area until the frame loads. It's supposed to load with this: http://mtd.webguppy.com/products-insert.html Thanks for any help, Kitty This post has been edited by KittyinColorado: Nov 3 2006, 05:51 PM |

No. The inline frame is under the control of the SRC URL.You can't get to the page from a URL because the site is on a NetSuite server (which is why I have the section which my co-worker edits hosted on a different server). You mean http://shopping.netsuite.com/c.ACCT119873/site/index.html ?So go to http://mtdmarketing.com/ and then click the Products/Services tab. You mean http://shopping.netsuite.com/c.ACCT119873/site/products.html ?Scroll down to the heading "Snapshot of Latest MTD Counts..." Assuming it ever loads. A link to http://mtd.webguppy.com/products-insert.html would make good alternative content. See the example in our HTML reference.You will see a big blank area until the frame loads. |

QUOTE No. The inline frame is under the control of the SRC URL. Ok. I suppose I could try putting a "loading" type message in there and then have it redirect to the data I wish to have there, but I probably won't be happy with those results either. Thanks for you quick reply, and hey, thanks for upholding the ethos of this forum so well: Please feel free to post your question to the appropriate forum. There's no need to feel embarrassed, everyone starts somewhere. You made me feel real special. Kitty |
