IFrame anomaly?

I'm experimenting with using IFrame to display four external website and I have encountered a display problem:

Three of my IFrame linked external sites work OK.
- they appear within the centre section of one of my website pages.
- the user can still see the menu of my own site whilst viewing the external content within a page on my website.

However, the fourth external website shows a quite different behavior: (http://europa.eu/index_en.htm)
- it takes over the whole display
- the user can no longer see the menu of my own site
- one click on the "back" button of the browser has no effect
- two rapid clicks on the "back" button of the browser returns the user to my own site.

The mojoPortal settings appear to be the same for all four external sites.

How can I make the fourth external website behave like the first three?

Thanks

Ken

Re: IFrame anomaly?

Hi Ken,

If you google for "prevent iframe" you'll find that it is very easy to add javascript to a page to prevent it being hosted inside a frame. Most likely the site has something like that to prevent it because they don't want anyone hosting their pages inside an iframe.

Hope that helps,

Joe
