Hi, Im working on a website (my first one using Dreamweaver), and I used phpBB to make a forum. To integrate it into my website I used a frameset, with in the top a menubar, and in the bottom frame the forum, using a redirect code to send users to the forum. However, people using IE are instead sent into an infinite loop (one person described it as a machine gun of mouse clicks).

Is there a more elegant way to integrate phpBB into a website, or is there at least possible to redirect people properly in IE.

the link is: http://www.jeugdraadroeselare.be/beta/forum.html

P.S. Firefox, Safari and Opera don't seem to have a problem doing this, and I don't know about IE 7

P.P.S. I know there is no title, but the site is still under contruction, and I already have a complete version locally, but the university cuts off port 21 for FTP acces, and I have to wait till Friday
 
do you really need the redirect? everything should be fine if you just set the frame to load the forum.

The problem is that I don't know what code to use to do this. I now redirect them to the folder that contains all my files, but I have no idea which file I actually need. :eek:
 
I am such an idiot. I just figured out I can just get the source code in firefox from that frame, so I don't even need frames anymore. I just copied my menu into that code.

Thanks for the help

That won't work out since the page you are coping from is a dynamic php page and the page you are pasting it into is html.
