External Frames included in outbound links

ChunkyTeXas · 16-Oct-2007, 12:40 PM #1

Hey guys,

My boss wants me to add a frame to the top of every page we link to. So when a user clicks a link on our site, a frame with links back to our site appears at the top of that site. Sort of like TutoriaLIZED.com.... anywhoot, I haven't done this in, oh i dont know? 5 years! .... but my boss wants it done.

So can anyone help me out?

Thanks!

Here is an example of doing this using PHP. I'm sure the same could be done using JavaScript, sort of like this:

Main site HTML:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
  <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="content-type">
  <title>Frameset Link</title>
</head>
<body>
<A HREF="linkframe.html?url=http://www.techguy.org">Click here</A> to open in a frameset!
</body>
</html>

Target frameset:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<HEAD>
    <TITLE>Link frame test</TITLE>
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">    
function loadSite() {
   loc = String(self.location);
   idx = loc.indexOf("?");
   if (idx > 0) {
        urlPos = loc.indexOf("=", idx);
        websiteURL = loc.substring(urlPos + 1);
        document.getElementById("website").src = websiteURL;
   }
}
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET ONLOAD="loadSite()" ROWS="20%,*">
    <FRAME NAME="top" SRC="link-info.html" FRAMEBORDER="1">
    <FRAME NAME="website" ID="website" SRC="#">
</FRAMESET>

Link-info (where your website link goes):

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<HTML>
<body>
<H1>This frame has the <A HREF="http://www.google.com/">link back to my site</A>!</H1>
</body>
</HTML>

The bottom frame should have the appropriate website loaded. Attached is a screenshot.

Peace...
