Hi -
I am in the middle of setting up and running a network of sites/forums/blogs on different platforms ran by different people. I would like to set up a network toolbar of sorts (similar to the diggbar) and I believe I would be using iframes.
My ultimate goal is giving webmasters a small get_file_contents or include from my site that will place a toolbar at the top and shift everything else down so there is ultimately no overlapping or problems. It appears to be the case at this site : http://nybaseballdigest.com/
with the fantasyplayers.com toolbar - however I cannot figure out how it's done by looking at the source.
I have tried researching this and all of my efforts have come up short - I have basically run across two different 'solutions' that don't work:
* "don't use iframes, iframes are so bad," or
* an example that has the iframe first then includes the site itself - which would not work for me here since I want to make this a simple and easy add for the webmasters to their header file (e.g. http://softwareas.com/styling-a-top-bar)
Can someone shed some light on how http://nybaseballdigest.com/ does it (it appears to be a combo of iframes and javascript) or another way to achieve this?
Thanks,
Matrocka
