I-frame causes page to break.

[Twelvethman]

Hello I am using the wonderful scroller script from Dynamic drive:

Dynamic Drive Scoller Script (http://dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex2/iframe-scroller.htm)

However for some reason, when I post the script onto an existing page, it causes the page to break up.

Page Broken up (http://www.northwestcollege.edu/Index(scroll).cfm)

External file for the iframe (http://www.northwestcollege.edu/Includes/Home/Hcalevents.cfm)

I would appreciate insight into why this would happen like that...

I tried your page and it worked just fine (IE 6 under Win 2K).

So perhaps you need to explain what you mean by "page broken up" and/or let us know what OS and browser you checked it with.

On a different note, I really, really think you should never animate text. It makes it more difficult to read, expecially for those who cannot read quickly. Of course that's a design decision you have to make yourself but I wanted to put it out there so you could consider the implications.

Here is how the actual page should look:

Current page (http://www.northwestcollege.edu/)

As you can see the pages structure is quite different.

I agree with you...text animation is not the most userfriendly! am just investigating options.

I found out the problem...I had forgotten a closing tag.

BTW - am going with a sample i-frame option with an internal scroll.

(Now I have to figure out how to sniff out and redirect the older version browsers!)
