Hey! I have a an offline html website and would like to make an internal link to an offline php application in my php root directory. I know I can run an application using 127.0.0.1/index.php, but I want to have a <a href=index.php>BLOG</a> or something similar in my html website and have the app run in a frame.
How do I do that?

<a href=http://localhost/index.php>BLOG</a>

Jcart's link should work. Ideally, the HTML pages should also be served by your webserver.

If you want to show the page in a frame in a page, you need to first set up a frame.
The following code will create a frameset with two frames. The first sized at 25% of the page and the second at 75% of the page.
This makes two vertical (Side-by-side) frames. To create horizontal (on top of each other) frames, change "cols" to "rows"
Code: Select all
<frameset cols="25%,75%"> <frame src="FILE NAME HERE" name="NAME OF FRAME"> <frame src="FILE NAME HERE" name="NAME OF FRAME"></frameset>
To have a link open in a specified frame:
Code: Select all
<a href="URL" target="NAME OF FRAME">LINK TEXT</a>
