Hey folks,
I am designing a site with VSD 7.0 build 24. I am adding a Paypal button via the 'Add HTML' button. I assign an object name and paste the Paypal code into the Body HTML tab. All works when testing within VSD. When I test if from a stand alone browser I get the following error:

"This content cannot be displayed in a frame" and asks if I want it displayed in a new window.

Obviously I want to avoid this error. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Steve

Steve, could you post a link to the page?

Sounds like the link needs to force a new browser window instead of trying to load it in an Iframe.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

How would I do this and keep the Paypal code intact?

Thanks,

I see the problem your using frames to put your site together. Why are you putting your site together this way in VSD. Your code works fine if you just drop it into a HTML box on your regular VSD page. :) I see multiple head and body tags just to name a few.

I did drop into a HTML box in VSD. I did exactly as the instructions on the CC site said to do it. I am not using frames at all in the design process. I am at a loss ay what you are trying to say..

I layed out individual pages in VSD, assigned buttons & added pictures where wanted, etc. When I wanted to add the paypal button I selected the HTML tool, assigned a name and pasted the HTML code from Paypal to the HTML body. I never specified frames anywhere.

It also works correctly from the internal VSD view but not from the site itself.

Still wondering..

Thanks,

Steve

Take a look at the attached image. Your site is made with frames.

Well, If it is made from 'Frames', as you say, then VSD made it that way. I have used VSD from start to finish on this project. Each page is a 'New Page'. Each item on each page is either new or 'Copied' from another and pasted with the object properties altered to fit.

Just maybe could it be a 'bug' in VSD?

Thanks for the help...

I could probably adjust your paypal code to work but you need to first open a support ticket to find out how VSD is making the code I'm seeing.
