EMBEDDING MEDIA
:: Webpage [ Info Only ]
Embed a Webpage inside of a Webpage / Save As… code_embed-webpage.html
You may embed an entire live site into your own page.
With the correct measurements and styles, you may allow your visitors to have a seamless experience for viewing information and media (external to your site).
In the following example, you may view NYIT’s website through an element called the iframe:
<iframe src="http://www.nyit.edu" width="1100" height="575" frameborder="0" scrolling="yes"</iframe>
Element: / <iframe / Markup to open an iframe element.
It creates frame for object/media from another page source
After you type iframe hit the spacebar before typing the first attribute…
Attribute 1: / src= / This attribute tells browser to look up a source
Value1: / “http://www.nyit.edu” / This is the absolute hyperlink/web location (URL)
for the page you wish to embed
Attribute 2: / width= / Width of the iframe
Value 2: / "1100" / Value (measurement) for the width attribute
Attribute 3: / height= / Height of the iframe
Value 3: / "575" / Value (measurement) for the height attribute
Attribute 4: / frameborder= / Informs browser a frameborder behavior will be added
Value 4: / "0" / Value of “0” allows webpage to be displayed without a border.
Attribute 5: / scrolling= / Informs browser a scrolling behavior will be added
Value: / ="yes" / “yes” value for scrolling, adds a scrollbar to the iframe
