Hello there

 

I am trying to open MS outlook using PHP and I found some code on the web to do it. I am having a problem carrying out step 4 which is

 

"to make a file named index.php which have 2 frames, in main frame you should put the 'comunread.php' file and in the bottom frame 'view.php'".

 

Any help on what this means would be greatly apperciated as I can't find any solution.

 

Thanks for your help in advance

You could reduce some of the confusion with this by cutting out where it says .php.

 

Basically, what they're saying is to create a framed page with 2 frames, and have each of those frames call each of those files, respectively. Your index.php for this would look something like this:

 

><html>
<head>
 <title>My Document Title</title>
</head>
<frameset cols="30%,*">
<frame src="view.php" name="view">
<frame src="comunread.php" name="comun">
</frameset>
</html>

 

wherein you need to adjust the columns percentage. You then need to create two files (view.php and comunread.php) so that the frame has these files to pull in. The tutorial that you're following has probably already had you create these files, or will tell you what to place inside them.

 

From a very simple perspective, .php files can be treated as .html files; they give you more flexibility with server-side scripting by telling the server to parse them for php.

 

I hope that helps to clarify what they want. =)
