    how do i use iframes in actinic landing page

    Hi

    I would like visitors to see an iframe url before the actual index page
    How can i use an iframe to achieve this?

    Normally iframes appear just after the opening <body> statement
    But in actinic we have

    <BODY OnLoad="PreloadImages................

    So how could i work in the iframe tag?

    thanks

    I'm not sure I'm clear exactly how you need this to work. If you want to change what appears on the home page index.html code then you'd have to create a new brochure template based on the one being used at Design > Options > Brochure > click Edit to see which template it's using from the Site1 folder, copy and rename the html file in the Site1 folder and add new code then select that as your template on the Home page in the content tree under the Layout option.

      I need an iframe inside my index page to pull up antoher 3rd party page to be above the index page itself.
      I would prefer to hard code it into the page itself, rather than editing templates

        Hard coding it is changing the template. Follow Louse's instructions above and then add the iframe code immediately after the end of the opening body tag.

        <BODY OnLoad="PreloadImages.............>
        <iframe...>
        ...
        </iframe>

          acatalog is 777
          cgi-bin-local is 755

          So to change the template, i ran a newtork test on my server
          gives me:

            I'm slightly confused here...

            So to change the template, i ran a newtork test on my server
            gives me:
            why run a network test in order to change a template?

            if we are talking www. dot caranco dot co dot uk,
            "/usr/virtual/1/easyshop/caranco . co . uk/home/cgi-bin-local"
            the live site is fine - hence the errors
            An error occurred trying to read "/acatalog/"

            The path to the web site directory you specified (/acatalog/) points to a file.

            The web site directory is not readable.
            The web site directory is not writable.
            Unable to create a file in the web page directory.

            No such file or directory

            Unable to create a sub-directory in the web site directory.

            No such file or directory
            are a red herring?



            can we have clarification please?

              I run a network test and i get:

              The directory specified as the path from the CGI-BIN to the acatalog directory does not exist on the web server. Check the path. Also see the on-line help for "Path from FTP server to Catalog".


              Joe, i need access to the site so I can edit the template to include the iframe mentioned at the start of this thread.

                Can you upload with Actinic at the moment to your live site?

                  No you dont.. you edit the template on your pc then upload to the server.

                  if its v7 you are looking for the Act_Primary that governs the overall layout
