  • iframes site of the day from: William
Today’s topic is iframes, and CSS in Dreamweaver. Reading is HTML & CSS Chapter 9 (video, audio) and Chapter 8, pages 189-190 (iFrames).
Framesets are now part of Web history—recall this DART230 site previous version we showed in the first week, so you can see how they work and think about why they have not persisted. For another look at current design, mostly commercial, (formerly featuring iframes) see TheBestDesigns.

Also, About.com (now Thoughtco) discussed <frameset> and a return to supporting framed sites.
Watch this space for an example of an iframe site. OK. As I said, iframes get used when loading other content such as AJAX. Note no scroll bars, though. Oh—Google maps uses them

as well as YouTube:

And here's a quick demo of targeting to an <iframe>. These two images will load in the iframe first loaded with a lovely cat photo.


For Dreamweaver, take a look at tutorials on the Nov. 16 page, and the Dreamweaver Help Pages-Introduction-Guided tour of Dreamweaver. For CC trial version, and documentation go to the Adobe site.
