Version HTML 4.0 brought us the ability to use inline frames, which are frames all by themselves in the middle of a page. Of course, everyone will have to be surfing with recent browsers to see this nifty little trick. Well, wanna see an inline frame? Here you go:

Pretty neat, isn't it? So how did I get this on here? Here is the code:

<IFRAME src="page1.htm" width="350" height="200" frameborder="10"> </IFRAME>

That's it! Almost like a normal frame tag, but it shows up inside your page. Here's what all this does:

1. <IFRAME>
   This is the tag that tells the browser an inline frame will go here.

2. src="page1.htm"
   This lets you specify the url of the document in the frame. See what type of stuff you can get placing one of your pages inside another one!

3. width="350"
   Lets you give the frame a length, in pixels.

4. height="200"
   Lets you give the frame its height, in pixels.

5. frameborder="10"
   Allows you to give the frame a border. Set this as large or as small as you like.

Also, this frame uses links just like any other frame. You can give the inline frame a name, and target the frame with a link on your page outside the frame! Here's How:

First, add the name command to your IFRAME tag:

<IFRAME src="iframe1.htm" name="inside_frame" width="350" height="200" frameborder="10">
</IFRAME>

Now, place links on your page to show up in the frame:

<A HREF="iframe2.htm" target="inside_frame">Change The Content from lime to purple</A>

<A HREF="iframe1.htm" target="inside_frame">Change The Content from purple to lime</A>

Here's an example of this at work, click on the links below the frame to change its contents:

You can also add the scrolling="no" command to keep the frame from scrolling.

So, go ahead and play around with it for a while.
