Maarten, you may need to set up a secondary 'site' which has a plain design (it doesn't include any of your headers, nav etc.). This site will display all of the same content as your normal site, just without the design. Then you can call the plain version of a page for your iframe.

That's if you really really really want to use an iframe. If, on the other hand all you want is the ability to keep your header and navigation visible while the content is scrolled, you can solve the problem with CSS, avoiding the iframe altogether. This has the bonus of improving the searchability of your site as well. But, to do this, you will have to sacrifice 4.x browsers, which had poor iframe support anyway. If you are willing to go the CSS route. Check out these two links, and try searching for 'position: fixed' via Google. :)

sgpoon, do you want the link listed in your left side navigator to show up in the iframe, or do you want it to replace the iframe?

Alex,
Thanks for your reply. But I still don't have a good idea to salve the problem.

In my pagelayout.tpl,top is my company logo and top menu, the below_left is navigator, and the below_right is content area; pls see code:

.......
{*below_left navigator*}
<h3>Navigation</h3>

{let sub_menu=treemenu($module_result.path, $module_result.node_id,

array('folder','info_page'), 1, 10)}
<ul >
{section name=Menu loop=$sub_menu}
<li class="subdirectory_{$:item.level}" > <a href={$:item.url_alias|ezurl}>{$:item.text}</a></li>
{/section}
</ul>
{/let}



{* below_right content area *}

<div style="width:75%; float:right; border-left:1px dashed red; border-bottom:1px dashed red">

{$module_result.content}

{*<iframe scr="http:/localhost/index.php/content" >
</iframe> *}

</div>

My problem is that When I click a linked Html file in content area, I want it pop up in the same page at the content area, not pop up is a new page, what can I do? use iframe or frame? Or anothe way?

and now, I've put the {$modeul_result.conent} is a new site, use iframe to link it, but i still can't find a way to make the below_left to link with belew_right,in other words, when i click the navigator , I want it dispaly the content in the below_right.

any help?

Thanks!

Alex:
Thanks a million!

I tried as you said, I assigned a name to the iframe, but how can I add the target, like this <a href="http://localhost/index.php/in_test" target="iframe">content</a>, am i right? but it's also can't give me the right present, and added a more line--<i>content</i> in the navigator area.

And I also tried to create another site, and let it only display navigator, and add the target to it, but it still can't ok.

You know if I don't set iframe, the treemenu($module_result.path, $module_result.node_id} automatic connect with {$modeul_result.conent}, when I click the folder, all file under it, will display in the content area.

I have no idea.
