Hi,
it's me again. Is it possible to change the content of a html widget (iframe) when one clicks on a button?
If not, how would you do it in VSD?
Regards,
Marc

Sure, This can be done by naming your iframe and calling it in a link.
Place this in to the Body html of a html box.
Place this into the body of another html box.
<a target="iframeswitch" href="myotherpage.html">Switch content</a>
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's so easy to overlook something your not looking for.

Place this in to the Body html of a html box.
<iframe name="iframeswitch" src="mypage.html" width="800" height="500" scrolling="no" frameborder="0">
<p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>

Hi Eric,
I am trying to understand this.
Lets say I have 15 buttons (objects), each should show a different page (iframe) within the main page where the buttons are. So I need 15 html boxes on top of each other?

You can place them all in one html box if you want or keep them separate so you can move them around. You can also link an image instead of using text for your link button.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

You are way out of my league Eric 
Would you be willing to give me an example with 2 content pages in one html box. And how I should 'program' the buttons.
1) Lets say I have 2 html pages a.html and b.html that should shown in a html box.
2) I have 2 objects (shapes) that I can change with the Link Properties (Create link)
How do I go about this?
Regards,
Marc

I'm not on my pc that has VSD at the moment. I will when I get it back up and running. Day or two. Did you try the example I posted?

Hi Eric,
That helped, thanks.
Am I correct in thinking that you can not use a shape box to change the content of a iFrame?

Are you saying linking a square box element made in VSD?
