    Default Dynamic Database usage

    Hi, In keeping with my attempts to educate myself, and shake off my noob status , is it possible to link to dynamic databases via xara websites? for example, directories, classifieds, or jobboard style sites?

    thanks,

    Mark aka/radiohawk

    Not easily, but I think it can be done via an iframe which grabs and displays content from another site.

    Once again, Gary, "U Da' Man" thanks for responding... so to clarify, iframe, is that like using a placeholder, same as I would use for a form insertion, like a contact form?

    Iframes can be useful for simple CMS. See attached.

    The framed page can be from anywhere.

    A more useful method makes use of Covoxer's dynamic page tweak.

    Any code added to the yellow place-holder, manually or via PHP includes, will extend the page when displayed.
