Could you get "this" to show in "this"?

[Zak33]

ok guys

Cheers the lot of you...and dont be offended, but I was kinda HOPING Iain might read this bit as I thought he (or Shorty) might be most likely to know how or how not to

Will try to ask the question....but you know what its like with big US companies....bleedin hard work

[yamangman]

He said the same as me I didn't mention the .fla as I assumed that you wouldn't be getting it if they told you to sort it yourself.

[Zak33]

yes Nuts....I agree...you are also a web god

[yamangman]

Stop flirting you old tart

[yamangman]

As a matter of fact, if you used a server-side language on you site, then you should be able to do it quite easily.

[Iain]

It's not going to be any easier with a server side language if you can't get at the data source which is the key limitation in this unless you had something particular in mind ?

[Zak33]

I only want the data thingy, I'm just a fussy bugger. I want...

/stamps foot

....I notice other resellers have tried, but it doesnt always work on their sites either

http://www.ancoris.com/s/cs/postini/postini_intro.shtml

it takes an AGE for it to work on that site...if at all. The box shows, but the figures don't turn up

[Moby-Dick]

thats because its not linking back to postini - I coudl get that far by nicking the swf file

[yamangman]

There are some methods that allow you to display another sites content "on" your site, but "not", although I don't know how happy they'd be you using their bandwidth.

Could he not use the "include" command in PHP? I suppose not as that would show the whole Postini page, but there must be a way to do it...

[Iain]

You can't include anything if the owner of the data won't provide you with access to it. That's my point, it doesn't matter what language or other application you have, unless you have access to the data source you can't do jack

If that was a response to my suggestion, you've missed my point.

[Iain]

It wasn't a reply to your suggestion, but it might help everyone if you tell us what you were meaning then ?

[Zak33]

right.....cheers guys, and sorry if it's caused a friction didnt mean it too

It will get sorted one way or 'tother

[Iain]

It's no friction, I'm just interested in how it would be achieved via yamangman's suggestion. Always keen to further my own knowledge

[Moby-Dick]

damn and I was looking for a good coder wrestle
