The <iframe> tag

iframe is a HTML tag Dave.

iframes are essentially a div block element that is sourced from another URL (think portlets)

Im not sure how compliant they are. I remember them being an IE only thing, not sure if that has changed now.

Ahhh, thanks. This is a fantastic opportunity for people to get back at me for being condescending anytime I have responded to any of their posts. Pile on!

ha... you seem so vulnerable Dave!....

Maybe we should all just tell you **** and watch you run around in circles...
I hear IWOV have specially made 'Dave voodoo dolls'
They have been waiting for this Smiley Happy

John Cuiuli

Oh come on Johnny, because of the Interwoven documentation I've been running around in circles for years Smiley Wink

I have been wondering what those sharp pains were in my eyes. Your voodoo doll theory explains it.

I'm gonna learn this Java stuff if it kills me...

Thats what I like Dave, still having a poke when your down Smiley Wink

The sharp pains will soon be called 'CLASSPATH pains... voodoo doll not required'.

John Cuiuli

I've never seen a Dave voodoo doll at IWOV. Sure, we get ticked off sometimes, but Dave is trying to use our products to do good work. The documentation can ALWAYS be better, we can ALWAYS improve migration and upgrade.

At least 90% of the time Dave is right about what he grouses about.

I do think posting one nice comment for every unhappy one is a good rule of thumb,but of course I can't make anyone do that.

These forums are here for people to work together and build cool stuff using IWOV Products, If it makes you frustrated sometimes, and you vent at/with us, that's ok.

actually I just realised also, that Iframe is supported by IE only. Or it's no longer the case..? However, one could always avoid having iframes..

no, iframe has been standardised.
All modern browsers should support it.
definately IE, Mozilla

Netscape 4 does not support them, but the newer ones do.

anyone still using netscape 4 should just stick to crayons and paper

John Cuiuli

Ok,

here we are: (from TS 6 installation guide)

Client OS Netscape Internet Explorer*
Windows XP, 2000 Not supported 5.5, 6.0
UNIX Not supported Not supported
MacOS Not supported Not supported

it seems that MacOX has been abandoned altogether.... And - the question about iframe is no longer hot Smiley Happy

Maybe support will grow after the first service pack. Maybe someone from IWOV may explain what their plans are.....?

John Cuiuli

IWOV is very interested in determining what are the correct Mac platforms and browsers to support. These are planned for an upcoming release of 6.0. Please be sure your sales representative is aware of your Mac requirements.

There is also a survey you can take on DevNet on development server platforms. The password is devnet03....check out:

Lissa,

you will not get any value from that survey. usually Mac users are in publishing/design, and they are unlikely to take that survey you have just mentioned.

I would agree with Greg if that survey would be used to determine the Mac issue.

Probably the most common group of Mac users would be end users/ authors rather than developers.

John Cuiuli

and, in general I found it simply amazing that IWOV again has changed the browser compatibility matrix for the new release. I thought TS 6 will be a step towards some better compatibility with MACs, especially in the area of Templating (VeF, etc), but, alas, the opposite seems to be the case Smiley Sad

It's my impression that there's nothing Interwoven can do to Visual Format to add Mac support since it is licensed from Ektron. What has Ektron done to support Mac? They released a product called eWebWP which is a Flash based editor. It is much harder to use in my opinion and doesn't provide the feature set that the regular eWebEditPro editor provides.

So really, VF is limited by Ektron. The eWebEditPro editor (i.e. VF) is limited by it's ActiveX based technology.

I realize there are two audiences to survey. I just want to be sure we hear from them both.
