website in cell
« on: January 17, 2007, 08:17:24 PM »
Can you show a website in a cell.

For example have a cell show the contents of a url like StatsGenie.

I want to create a display screen that has my stats genie site in it so I can show the rankings pre-tourney.

Keith could you just make it into an image then load it into a cell?

I could but that wouldnt fit what I want for my end results..

I have found a descent ammount of posts on this forum - looking for ways to show current point standings for their league.

I believe this will be a good method of doing this, pending you upload to a website like stats genie or other sites.

I will just have to look for it - It will probably be a embed command or something to that extent - maybe ill go old school html and uses frames - where the frame src is the url.

I will have to play with it. If anyone knows feel free to drop the info - no scense reinventing the wheel.

Use an <iframe>:

<iframe src="http://www.thetournamentdirector.net"></iframe>

You can size it using height and width attributes:

<iframe src="http://www.thetournamentdirector.net" height=200 width=400></iframe>

You can turn off scrollbars with the attribute "scrolling=no":

<iframe src="http://www.thetournamentdirector.net" height=200 width=400 scrolling=no></iframe>

Here's Microsoft's iframe description page:

Thanks corey...

You just saved me some time.

In the future when you have posts relating to people wanting to show current rankings - let them know about this.

With Statsgenie right click on the ranking link in the menu and choose copy shortcut - now you have the link to go right to the rankings area - no menu etc...

hope this helps others
