[opencms-dev] AW: Using Frames in OpenCMS

Hiya ….

Yes it is possible … exactly as you stated … however, as you have found
yourself. If frame1 contains your navigation then I would change it to
something like frame1.html.jsp (ie. a jsp page). Then add the code
within this to display the navigation links and text and simply change
the link to target main.

So …. Frameset.html.jsp (as you said)

<html>
            <frameset …..
</html>

******************************************
frame1.html.jsp
<html>
<%
 jsp navigation code … 
 any link should be defined as <a
href=’”+cms.link(nav.getResourceName())+”’ target=’main’>
where cms is a cms object and nav is the enumerated navigation object
%>
</html>
******************************************

and then simply add your pages including homepage.html as html pages
which can be edited within the WYSIWYG editor.

This is a bit off the top of my head …. So if it is not clear and you
need code examples, let me know.

Personally I would steer well clear of framesets, and use multiple
content areas instead as with a frameset you are not loading a new
navigation for each page, so you would need to use client side
javascript to actually mark the current page within the navigation tree.

All the best,

mark

Mark, 

        Is it possible to create a jsp template which actually contains
a frame set 

        <html> 
                <frameset cols=15%,85%> 
                        <frame name="index" src="frame1.html"> 
                        <frame name="main" src="homepage.html"> 
                </frameset> 
        </html> 
< br>        here frame1.html and homepage.html are inside the /www/
foder. 

        i am doing this according to your guide on OpenCMS. So i have a
folder called ch.test.www inside /system/modules/ 
        and i am placing a jsp file inside the jsptemplates folder whose
content is as given above. Is it possible to do it like this. 

        If possible then how can I make them link to the required page
ie,  frame1.html and homepage.html
