On the other hand, the IFrame can contain its own scroll bar, independent of the surrounding page's scroll bar.įor security reasons, moodle just does not allow you to use iframes everywhere. The IFrame behaves much like an inline image and the user can scroll it out of view. The size of the IFrame can be specified in the surrounding HTML page, so that the surrounding page can already be presented in the browser while the IFrame is still being loaded. NOTE: Screen widths are often 1200 pixels wide so an iFrame up to 1000 pixels is often fine.

content from sites which deliver content through iFrames such as Google Picasa web albums, YouTube etc.

another Moodle course, a network file of html page

content from network locations outside the current Moodle course e.g.

calendars from external sites such as Google calendar, Microsoft Outlook web calendars, Apple Mobileme calendars etc.

In Moodle, it is a good way to display content such as:

scrolling: is used for activating and deactivating the scroll-bar appearance in your frame and takes either yes, no, or auto as values to be assigned to it within double-quotes.IFrame ( Inline Frame) is piece of HTML code that creates a frame or window within an HTML page to display content from another URL.

It is written something like: noresize='noresize'.

But this attribute helps users stop resizing the frames.

noresize: It is generally possible to resize your frame by clicking and dragging the frame borders.

marginheight: facilitates specifying the frame borders height spacing on top and bottom sides.

marginwidth: facilitates specifying the frame borders width spacing on the left and right sides.

frameborder: is used for specifying if the borders are being shown in the frame you are using, and you can assign values either: 1 (yes) or 0 (no) for it.

name: facilitates you in giving a name to your frame, and hence you can indicate which frame(s) you are supposed to load into your page.

It takes the value as filename.html or filename.htm within double-quotes.

src: is implemented for fetching the HTML file that needs to be loaded in one of the frames.

In many browsers, frame technology is not supported, and hence HTML script is unable to relay any output in the browser.

In many cases, the back button of the browser may also stop working.

Screen resolution has an adverse effect on frames that you will create in some devices.

Small devices (mobile or other smartphones) cannot cope with the size and features of frames mostly because these device screens aren't large enough to split up, which is done by.

Using frames has some disadvantages, so it is not recommended to use frames in the HTML document. Multiple HTML pages can be viewed in a browser window using this tag. The primary use of these frames was to display a menu in parts of the page with content in one part of the page. Every within the tag may use attributes for different purposes like border, resizing capability, include scrolling, etc. This tag defines a specific window or frame inside the tag. The HTML font tag is obsolete and is not supported in HTML5. In his chapter, you will learn about the frames and how they are used to create multiple sections in a single browser display. So the entire separation of HTML pages is possible using the concept of frames. This concept of HTML providing multiple frames at one browser display is called frameset, and all the frame tags are used within the container tag.

HTML allows programmers to divide a single browser display into multiple window sections, where each section can load individual URLs.
