I want to know how to show the contents of a link in an i-frame present in the same webpage ???

http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_iframe.asp

that webpage just shows iframes not how to load contents into one via a link

 

<a target="frame" href="http://google.com">Link</a>
<iframe name="frame" src ="http://yahoo.com" width="100%" height="300">
 <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
</iframe>

 

1) give the frame a name

2) make a links target the name of the frame

indeed but if you follow the link about 'name' on the same page you can find it and, maybe, learn.

well saying that with your link would of been alot more useful and actually answered the question in a go learn way
