Problem with a bit of code--- iframe

Posted 17 years 9 months ago
- I am playing around a bit and am trying to display some info on my site using the following bit of code:
  
  <iframe src=" carljohnson.point2agent.com/Listing/Listings2Go.aspx " width="600" height="400" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" />
  
  However, Joomla does not seem to like it and will give me the error "You don't have permission to access /administrator/index2.php on this server." when I try to save the content.
  
  If I remove the iframe reference it saves it but I do not get the desired effect. I am trying to display the above either in a content item or a module but neither works.
  
  Any help on this would be appreciated.

- Have you tried this
  
  under the menu manager (probably for mainmenu) click 'new' to create a new menu item.
  
  Then on the left hand side under the 'miscellaneous' heading select 'wrapper' and put your link in there.

- yeah, I was gonna recommend the same thing that Daniel just recommended. Your file is ASP.NET based and is a competing language with with PHP. Creating a .asp webpage on a server using ASP.NET and wrapping it into Joomla is really the best way.

- I tried your suggestion and when I try to save the new menu item I still get the following
  
  "You don't have permission to access /administrator/index2.php on this server."
  
  I do not understand this error as I should have proper permissions since I can create and save items normally. For some reason it does not like something in the code.....I guess???

- are you trying to run it on a PHP/MySQL based server??
  
  That code has to be run on a Window's server using ASP.NET

- I got it to work in a wrapper as you suggested. It still does not like having Iframe in the link. I guess that makes sense.
  
  I would like to put this info on my home page mixed with other info. Is there any way to do this. Perhaps in a module??

- Yeah, wrappers only work with urls and you can't add any special instructions.

- There is a wrapper module somewhere I think.
  
  BTW The wrapper itself is an iframe and you can set most of the parameters you set above.

  I've just successfully inserted that very iFrame HTML into a content item on my play Joomla site. Works fine... I only switched off the WYSIWYG editor and put the code into the Main Text. I'd imagine it'd work in the Intro Text as well.
