Ok, the Yahoo groups used to support the I Frame format. Now they don't. Need to know what frame format it supports now. I'm desperate to have our Code Amber Alert Ticker back in our Yahoo group. Here is the link so that you may see why.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OPERATION_FIND_ME/ I'm hoping to be able to create a code for that ticker using the new frame format. Will somebody help me, please?! Thank you!! (I used to have midi tunes that played also when entering my yahoo group. They no longer work either because of the frame format change. Would love to have that back too, but not as important as having the ticker.

  1. It's not currently possible to put it directly in your group's website.  However, you can place the ticker on a personal website and place a link to it on your group's website.  You can name the link that you place on your group site anything you wish.  

    Yahoo Geocities offers free websites.  You could take advantage of that and place the ticker there.   Here's the link to start your own free Yahoo Geocities website: http://geocities.yahoo.com/

    Click on "Geocities Free" near top of page.


  2. iframes was not changing or being replaced, Yahoo simply disabled it. there was talk about allowing something to the like of iframes, but the malicious scripts trolls were adding ruined it for all.

    some html codes may had been effected by the removal of iframes. sometimes you need to play with the code or reformat it for codes to work. some just wont. this code uses java script, so it isn't going to work.

    that's too bad, this ticker would be a nice add to groups. although the iframes was beaten to death back when, it's worth another suggestion:
