RE: [PHP] PHP within Frames
Ok, this is just a guess but, it is based on experience. Lets say you have the frames page (frames.php), it has two frames show_a.php and show_b.php, the code for each is simple print "$a" and print "$b" respectively. If frames.php?a=hello&b=world is called and the frame sources are set to show_a.php and show_b.php they will print nothing because they do not know what the variables $a and $b are. If you change the frame src values to show_a.php?a=$a and show_b.php?b=$b they will work. So, my question to you is do your framed pages know the values of all necessary variables?

Hmmm... I appreciate your effort, and I bet that you're pulling your
hair out trying to figure out how to give so you can get, but I still
don't really know what you mean. What is a "PHP parameter"?
%
% Someone mentioned that I might not have the testing server set up correctly
% and it may be running locally. Bit of a novice so not too sure about this.
If you can point to your php code and have it execute then you are
probably fine; php that has not been run by the server just looks like
code in your browser. Your frameset could be pointing to
file:///...
instead of
http://...
though (but you should still get a code dump).
% I have checked the settings for Testing Server in Dreamweaver and it seems
% OK. (Should I try a Dreamweaver NewsGroup?)
Since frames have no effect on PHP and you're swimming in deep water,
that might not be a bad idea. You have, however, still not given us much
detail (the only thing I've seen so far is a pair of uuencoded files and,
frankly, I'm too lazy to rip 'em open just because Outhouse doesn't know
how to attach files).
Try saving these two snippets to a directory where your web server can
serve them:
index.php:
\n" ;
print "\n" ;
print "\n" ;
print "\n" ;
print "This is not in the frameset\n" ;
?>
frame.php:
\n" ;
switch($_GET['f'])
{
case 'top' :
print "This is the top frame!\n" ;
print "Pick a number:\n" ;
foreach (array('one','two','three') as $n)
{ print "$n \n" ; }
print "(Your last pick was {$_GET['n']}.)\n" ;
break ;
case 'bot' :
print "This is the bottom frame *yawn*\n" ;
print "Pick a color:\n" ;
foreach (array('red','green','blue') as $c)
{ print "$c \n" ; }
print "(Your last pick was {$_GET['c']}.)\n" ;
break ;;
}
?>
The should look like
http://justpickone.org/davidtg/private/frames/index.phps
http://justpickone.org/davidtg/private/frames/frame.phps
respectively.
Now point your web browser to the right place on your server and see if
you see the frameset like you do at
http://justpickone.org/davidtg/private/frames/
from the examples above. If you do, then your web server is serving
files and your php is being executed. You can also probably kick
Dreamweaver in the head for making life hard. Go and pick up a copy of
vim (it runs on just about any platform) and edit your code the Manly
(and OneTrue ;-) Way!
This could, in fact, be done entirely in one file with no problem...
Just add a default for the switch and print the frameset there.

I assume you mean that your code is being interpreted but that you have a flaw in your code. In this case, you need to provide a lot more information for anyone to have a chance at guessing your error. > I've can't find any decent references for PHP in Frames.

Re: [PHP] PHP within Frames
John,
Thanks for the response. Below is my response to Larry...if you can shed
any light on this then I would be gratefull.
Thanks for the swift response. I didn't post the code as I thought there
may be an obvious answer.sorry..
Attached are two pieces of simple code (produced originally under
Dreamweaver then edited to add the simple PHP lines).
Having had little success I decided to cut them down to the minimum to see
if it was something in the code.
The Main_User_Interface is the Frames definition and the Catagory_Choice is
a page I'm trying to load into the left page.
I mention the Dreamweaver piece as I'm a novice and can't pass comment on
the bits that dreamweaver automatically generates.
I'm also not sure that I know everything I need to about Session variables
so it may be related to that.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
With Kind Regards
Kevin

Re: [PHP] PHP within Frames
Does anyone know why my PHP pages won't work in Frames? I have 5 frames, each of which are displaying PHP pages.and none of the PHP code works. PHP works just fine within frames because the two issues are completely unrelated. That being said, I can't tell why you're having problems as you've: - Posted no code - Posted no links to the working (or not working) example - Not explained what you mean by "none of the PHP code works" One good reason why none of your code would work would be if your frame document was referencing your PHP files as filename.html as opposed to filename.php.
