iframe
 
Is it possible to use an iframe on a post. For example, I have a site www.bjsnyder.com that has categories set up under tutorials. So if someone wants text tutorials they click on that and will see all the posts on text effects. If they click on a post they would go to the post page and that would have an iframe with the url page of the tutorial. For example, if I found a favorite tutorial on a site at (not a real site)http://www.psgoodstuff.com/text on fire/ can I put that url in an iframe on my post?

I edited my post to try to explain it better.

hmmm...it's possible - but might get you in trouble lol. At least if I'm understanding you correctly - you essentially want someone else's tutorial to be fully visible in your blog, with your site around it? There are ad plugins that make that work, but I think you have to have the original site owner's permission to do it properly.

If I'm misunderstanding do let me know and we can help sort it.

I don't like trouble! My idea is to collect links to my favorite tutorials. And have them all in one place, my site. What one site (www.photoshoplady.com) does is open a new window that is the site that has the tutorial on it and then they have some kind of bar across the top if you want to go back to them. I suppose I could just send them to the site and if they wanted to come back they'd have to hit the back button a few times.

or just send them there in a new window would be better

I would send them there in a new window...that way you don't have any issues, and your site is there for them to access easily when they close it.

That seems like the most ethical way to go...thanks Rebecca
