espn bottomline

[blueraider]

I know lots of people have wondered about the espn bottomline, here is the frameset code that will put it on your site and i believe can be used with any version.

I did it slightly different...

I used this hack:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=97901

put the $vboptions[fhheader] where I wanted it and in the Admin -> Forums Home page Options section added this code to show in the header:

<tr>
<td class="alt1">
<iframe src="http://espn.go.com/bottomline/espnewsbottomlinebasic.html" height="44px" width="100%">
</iframe>
</td>
</tr>

Works perfectly for me.

Looks good GW. I thought to share it for those that want to know how to put it on their site, seeing that espn doesn't go into much detail.

Is there a way to lock the bottom line on one sport and embed that code into the forumhome page so it always stays that way without users having to manually save the settings?

Using iframes in a page (getting content from other web sites) is a non seo activity. google doesnt like this kind of pages. this is just a warn.

So how would a person show it on their page?

Embed it like this does?

VaaKo, how did you do yours? Did you modify the code any? I couldn't find a way to get mine to stretch all the way across (even when I set the width to 100%) so I removed it.

When I set it to 100% a black box went all the way across but the bottomline itself stayed the same size.

Was wondering this myself. Put it where I needed to but I dont know how to make it fit the forum so it goes all the way across.

My forums are set to fixed rather then fluid style.

I have the ESPN bottom line ticker running just under my navbar. It works as it should, however it cuts off a little bit from the end.

My forums: http://www.gridironjunkies.net/forums

Forums the ticker shows up correctly on: http://www.wsforums.org/forums/portal.php


the code I inserted is this:


Code:
<tr>
<iframe src="http://espn.go.com/bottomline/espnewsbottomlinebasic.html" height="44px" width="100%">
</iframe>
</tr>

I am basically trying to find out of there is simply a bit of code I can add, or wrap around this small bit to get it to show up properly.

Thanks for any help.

Works Great, but how do I put it on my sports section instead of the forum homepage???

I replaced the number in bold red to 940. and It worked for me. Just kep playing with that number until you reach the desired width.
