I need to build a site that has a page containing links to a number of .mov files, but I need the movies to play in a certain position on that same web page. So, in my reading, I have come upon the inline frame; however, I would like to know if this works well, or if it can cause big problems. (I can't use regular frames because of the site's design.)

If there are problems with inline frames is there another way to do this? (I currently use CSS for text and a few other little things, but I haven't had time to learn enough CSS to use it for positioning, if this is even an option, so I guess that's out for now.) :confused:

Use CSS rather than iframes, please...

Oh Please Rename Your Subject Line! The Code Is Stuffing Up The Main Page.

Well, all I know about iFrames is that they are not used on every browser, but if you do it right it should work just fine. I know you can't use the CSS, but that would be best if you could. Try to use as much as possible!

Hi Guys,

I have been toying with the idea of using I-Frames and have finally decided to make use of them. I have been on a number of forums and I have been told its ok to use them as all new browsers are compatable with them.

Not to sure whether search engines read information from inside an I-Frame tho????
