no i dont mean that... erm.. maybe i choose wrong image :-)

I dont want the "Ajax Tabs Content script"
I just want to make iframe to the yahoo real "featured news" , ok.. let i make a new image.. like this...



then i only target the iframe at the orange box only not as a whole..and embed it to my site



how i can do that..?

So let me see if I understand. You want to be able to pull certain content from yahoo (Particualrly the news) into an iframe. Dont think you can do this from an iframe. But can probally be accomplished with some php.

You are superb medyman..
would you mind to post the script here :-)

anyway its look like to iframe overlay.. but its good try :-)
how you do this..
i check your "inside.html" the left bar of yahoo not show off...

[Medyman]

Sure...

Like you said, it is an iframe overlay with some absolute positioning. You'll have to play around with the CSS postion values to get it to line up correctly. Also, you should first measure the area you want to show and then make the iframe that exact size THEN play with the positing.

I didn't do that so you'll see that the iframe is quite larger than it needs to be on the home page.

Anyway, my html and CSS are thus (just the important parts, i trust you can add the rest:

index.html

<iframe src="inside.html" width="610" height="403" frameborder="none" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" ></iframe>

inside.html

<div style='position:absolute;width:100&#37;;height:100%;top:-130px;left:-160px;'>
<iframe src="http://www.yahoo.com" width="100%" height="100%" frameborder="none" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>
</div>

Again, I feel like this is a very amateur way of doing it. But hey, it works!

i see, Its quite go to CSS positioning.. maybe 1 html file is possible, what do you think?

Thank you for that, I'm not thinking about CSS before, just thinking it must be more on html, I'll do a try :-)

Yeah, Its very amateur! but as long as its work and the position is taking carefully.. its still great.. just its take more bandwith..with iframe

I'm searching grabbing php script. by the way :-) thank you for your time
