WOIFrame

Component Description

The WOIFrame component inserts an IFRAME tag into your page. This tag is a container to create an in-line or floating frame: a frame in which the contents of another HTML document can be seen. The difference between an IFRAME and a normal frame is that the floating frame can be seen inside a document and is treated as a part of the document. This means that when you scroll through the page the frame will scroll with it. IFRAME tags are supported by Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser. If you want to insert a FRAME tags, as used by Netscape's browser, use the WOFrame dynamic element documented in the Dynamic Elements Reference.

The HTML content displayed within the WOIFrame can come from a method, a URL, or a WebObjects page.
