We want to integrate another website into our Ning site. The tabs allow you to direct someone to the other site, but we'd like to display the other site within a textbox and integrate it into our Ning site so that people don't leave the site and get lost.
Is there a way to do this in a frame?
Thanks!

Yes, I use an i-frame on one of my pages. Makes visitors feel as though it's part of your site (but it's not). Here's the code I use in 3.0. Just past it into a content box, add the URL for the site you're choosing and adjust the size if necessary. Good luck!
<iframe width="100%" height="1200" src="YOUR OUTSIDE SITE URL" scrolling="auto" frameborder="0"></iframe>
Thanks so much KOS. This really helps!
This is a great tool for making responsive embeds
place your webpage URL inbetween the '' under the Generic Iframe option...it will give you a code with responsive styles too..
<iframe src='YOURLINK'></iframe>
JF well isn't that slick! I tried it out and it looks great on any size. Bookmarked that page. Thank you!
my pleasure!
Thanks so much JFarrow! I really appreciate the help. :)
I don't know what I'm doing wrong. It's not working. I pasted this code into a content page and got a grayed out blank space:
<iframe width="100%" height="1200" src="http://homeperformanceforum.org/" scrolling="auto" frameborder="0"></iframe>
I think it's Ning; not you. I'm having difficulty getting pages to load and api.ning.com is what's holding it up. Server trouble? I'll try to file a ticket and see if it goes through. Hang in there........
fwiw you can check the internet. There's a ton of posts out there saying Google doesn't support iframe.........depending on the google version you have. They're concerned over security (seems to be the reason).
Definitely have Ning take a look at it. There's someone answering support tickets today - go ahead and file one.
Oops some 'adblock' add ons seem to interfere as well. Again, check the internet.
