how to display external web document?

Hi everyone,

Does anyone has the experience of using IFrame in turbine or has
successfully accomplish the same thing as IFrame in turbine?

------------------------------------------
An IFRAME, or "inline frame" is basically a floating frame which sits
within a web page document. Its actual content is an external web
document, and you slot it within the floating frame according to the
attributes you set.
------------------------------------------- 

What I need is to display the content from an external server when the
link to the external document is clicked, but I still need the top
navigation and left navigation, eg, I want the exteranl doc to be
displayed as turbine screen.

Please offer your help.

Thanks

richard

Hi Jeffery,

Your comment that IFrame is just a place holder in a velocity template
is very to the point. I never use IFrame before, but it works in my
template now.
Thank you so much for your help!

I have an IFrame that calls another page within my app

from orders,Edit.vm --
                                                                                                                                              
 <!-- ******************************************************* -->
 <!-- *******************    LINE ITEMS ********************* -->
    <IFRAME
	    NAME="itemlist" SRC="$content.getURI("resources/orders/items.html")" TITLE=""
	    width="980" height="150"
	    MARGINWIDTH=0 MARGINHEIGHT=0 FRAMEBORDER=0 SCROLLING=auto>
    </IFRAME>


we use quite a bit of Javascript trickery to actually populate the iframe 
contents as it is pretty much just a place holder to display data before 
sending it off to our action class.

I don't see why you can't link to any page in your IFRAME. This does not 
seem to be a real turbine issue.
