Well-known member
I am attempting to create custom page with frames, allowing me to utilize external source html. Please advise. peace.

Code:
<div class="baseHtml messageText">

<frameset cols="800,250">
    <frame src="left" />
    <frame src="main" />
</frameset>

</div>

Going to bump this as I'm also in need of this now and you never got an answer.
 
I've moved your thread from the development forum as this only seems to be related to HTML code in a Page node template.

Can you link to an example of what it is you're trying to do?
 
This is some sample code that I am playing around with locally on my desktop. Basically, I want to be able to edit frame source HTML outside of XenForo.

I realize that the DOCTYPE, HTML and HEAD tags are not required for XenForo. Is any of this possible with XenForo?

Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>A simple frameset document</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET cols="20%, 80%">
  <FRAMESET rows="100, 200">
      <FRAME src="frame1.html">
      <FRAME src="frame2.gif">
  </FRAMESET>
  <FRAME src="frame3.html">
  <NOFRAMES>
      <P>This frameset document contains:
      <UL>
         <LI><A href="frame1.html">Some neat contents</A>
         <LI><IMG src="frame2.gif" alt="A neat image">
         <LI><A href="frame3.html">Some other neat contents</A>
      </UL>
  </NOFRAMES>
</FRAMESET>
</HTML>
 
You should go about that a different way in my opinion.
http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_frames.asp said:
With frames, several Web pages can be displayed in the same browser window.
ATTENTION. Do not expect frames to be supported in future versions of HTML.
 
I tried to replicate what I think you were looking for using iframes, divs and some styling
HTML:
<style type="text/css">
div.chiefwrapLeft20 {float:left; margin-left:0; width:20%;}
div.chiefwrapRight80 {float:right; width:80%;}
</style>

<div class=chiefwrapLeft20>
  <iframe src="http://masterchief.com/your.html" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="100" scrolling="no" >
    <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
  </iframe>

  <iframe src="http://xenxero.com/splashy4.png" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="200" scrolling="no" >
    <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
  </iframe>
</div>

<div class=chiefwrapRight80>
<iframe src="http://masterchief.com/maybeA.htm" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="300" scrolling="no" >
  <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
</iframe>
</div>
 
We are now getting somewhere ... thanx. I am using following code in page node. The html files contain one line text declaring frame number, i.e. frame1.html contains 'This is frame number one' ... etc.

Code:
<style type="text/css">
div.chiefwrapLeft20 {float:left; margin-left:0; width:20%;}
div.chiefwrapRight80 {float:right; width:80%;}
</style>

<div class=chiefwrapLeft20>
  <iframe src="frame1.html" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="100" scrolling="no" >
    <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
  </iframe>

  <iframe src="frame2.html" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="200" scrolling="no" >
    <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
  </iframe>
</div>

<div class=chiefwrapRight80>
<iframe src="frame3.html" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="300" scrolling="no" >
  <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
</iframe>
</div>

This is the result, with this code you can now edit multiple frames on a page node outside of the ACP. ~peace
