Hi

I am running a Guild website for Warcraft and I would like to find a module that will enable me to "wrap" a utility that has not been ported for xoops.

Is this possible? I don't necesarily want it to look pretty, just functional. A few modules talk about wrapping content, however none of them can deliver what i want, which is essentially wrapping a PHP-driven program called eqdkp. see www.eqdkp.com for reference.

Any thoughts?

look for the "myiframe" module.

Kinda works, however I got more joy out of adding an IFRAME to a custom block.

However, both ways suffer from the fact that if I follow a link within the iframe, the XOOPS site disappears and I am left with the content of the iframe only.

Keen to get a solution here.

Any ideas?

Any ideas or is this a pipedream?

Not a pipedream, there are a couple of hacks to integrate in the myiframe for different needs.

1. from dynamicdrive.com a hack to have the iframe size automatically resize to the size of the page it is opening. This only works within your own domain.

2. this javascript, when placed in the top of the body of the script you are opening within the iframe will ensure that if you try to open the script directly it will redirect to your iframe within xoops.

For example check the Ladder portion of The Lion's Den link in the sig. you can try accessing the ladder directly thorugh ladders.thelionsden-arena.com and it will redirect to the iframe in xoops.

You'll need to play around a bit with it.
Cheers.
