    I want to make it so if you click a youtube link, it brings up a page in the iframe at the top of the page on my site...

    for example:


    <html>
    <body>

    <iframe src="demo_iframe.htm" name="iframe_a"></iframe>


    <a href="http://https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKb3qRljGBc" target="iframe_a">4/20 stoner dash</a>

    </body>
    </html>



    but when i try to do it on my site, i will click the link and nothing will show up in the Iframe_a box. i know i am doing this correctly because i did it on my local computer and it worked just fine, it just wont work with youtube.....can anyone help plz??

    He's trying to make it so if you click a link the Iframe will display a video. (
    When the link link is clicked load the video in the iframe.

    It works on my computer as well, but when you use it on-line it just directs you to the home page.

    Edit: You either need a proper sorce for your iframe or none at all or it takes you to the default page and for some reason won't let you change. Try this:

    Code:

    <iframe id = "iframe1">

    </iframe>
    <a href = "(yoururl)" target = "iframe1"> Clicky </a>

    I've got that working on my forums.
