[Pro] Help! I'm in iFrame/Nav Popup Action Hell

I am trying to load youtube urls into an iFrame using the Nav Popup.

On this page:

http://applemountaingolfresort.com/instruction/index.html

when I preview from FW in Safari it works as intended. But when I upload the page, selecting a different url from the popup opens the youtube url in a new window.

Now on this page:

http://applemountaingolfresort.com/nu/instruction.html

when I preview from FW in Safari it opens the youtube url in a new window. But when I upload the page, selecting a different item in the popup does nothing.

I can work around this by using multiple pages, but the 4 different behaviors are driving me nuts and I’d like to know why.

Thanks,

-ss

Anyone have any ideas what the issue is here?

Neither of those pages/pop up navs work for me

How did you construct this to target the iFrame

You might try changing the load order of the javascript. Set the iFrame to load after nav pop up’s javascript. After body perhaps.

(I have recently found that this issue was the cause of rollovers failing to work when an iFrame was present on the page. I would say that this is a bug, but I’m not a developer, so perhaps things are supposed to work this way … that said … no one here could tell me why it wouldn’t work, so I guess it’s probably a bug. It’s easy to test for anyone that cares to).

Hello David,

iFrame
name = movief

Nav Popup
target = other
Other target = movief

Example url in Nav Popup = YouTube

Are you using Safari?

Grant,

I was not aware that there was a method for ordering the position of JS inserted by actions. Can you enlighten me?

Thanks!

I made my iFrame before the FW action existed. So I inserted a Markup Item (Insert menu) and pasted in the iFrame ID, frame colour etc., Then referenced to that ID in Page HTML Markup (Page menu) with further formatting etc.

Initially I had the Page HTML Markup in; After , then I discovered that this broke Rollovers which were showing/hiding layered text via the Rollover and Show/Hide actions. I then discovered that putting the Markup in; After enabled these Rollovers to work.

(As I say … I guess this is a bug, but the workaround … works. :slight_smile: )

Oops!

I meant to say that it enabled the iFrame to work. The Rollovers/Show/Hide worked no matter what. It’s the iFrame content that simply didn’t load.

Thanks. It appears this is a bug in the Nav Popup action as a regular link specifying the target works just fine.

I have contacted Softpress about it.

Well, if it’s a bug in Nav Popup, then it must be a bug in Rollover and Show/Hide Layers too.

Personally, I think it more likely that it is a bug in FW when building its pages.
