[IUG] ILL frames kludge


[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]
Dear Colleagues

We are going 'live' with ILL soon after a long struggle.
If you have the ILL module you would know it ignores
the FRAMEURL WWWOptions setting when returning a WebOPAC search from the
forms; probably a "known issue" by now.

It returns the search in the lower frame with the top frame
fixed at 20% - too small for our corporate style.
I don't like frames, but if I'm stuck with one it should be usable.

You can force it to another size by using a bit of javascript
in your TOPLOGO or BOTLOGO (tested in IE6 and Firefox). This
goes inside 'script' tags of course.

The following code sets the top frame to 60% for 600x800 screens and 40% for others.


if(top.document.body) {
top.document.body.rows=screen.height<700?"60%,*":"40%,*";
}

regards

Mark
