    Default Adding Amazon HTML to product description

    Hi there,

    I am trying to add an Amazon.co.uk affiliate link to the bottom of the product description. The code is:

    <iframe src="http://rcm-uk.amazon.co.uk/e/cm?t=denyiorg-21&o=2&p=8&l=as1&asins=0520075900&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&lc1=0000FF&bc1=FFF FFF&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr&npa=1" style="width:120px;height:240px;" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"></iframe>
    However, when I do this and hit 'preview' there are no buttons at the bottom of the page, so I cannot 'insert' the product and nothing gets saved.

    Can anyone tell me why an 'iframe' tag should stop the rest of the page from being generateed and is there a way round this ?

    many thanks in advance,

    Dan

    okay no solution yet. I am assuming it has something to do with zencart along with firefox because my iframe shows in IE just fine.

    Here's a link to my example...
    http://www.oldwestgames.com/dino-the...-cd-p-520.html
    look at it in both IE and FIREFOX

    i actually enclosed the iframe in a div with its own style as listed below
    Code:
    /* Firefox Iframe Solution*/
    
    .inline {
    right: 100px;
    background-color: #cc0000;
    text-align: center;
    height: 300px;
    width: 180px;
    }
    .if1{
    width: 120px;
    height: 240px;
    }
    and my div and iframe code looks like this

    Code:
    <div class="inline" align="center">
    		<iframe class="if1" src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=oldwestgameta-20&o=1&p=8&l=as1&asins=B00021LPIS&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr" style="width:120px;height:240px;" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"></iframe>
    	</div>
    the background for the div is red so that you can see that other code is showing just not the iframe.

    I have searched and searched on the net and there are problems with iframes and firefox but I just can't seem to find the exact same problem elsewhere or a solution.

    Please help....

    somebody?

    lol

    The solution has been found...

    The real problem is not zencart or firefox but it's the Adblock Plus extension for firefox.

    Opened adblock plus and found these two culprits
    .assoc-amazon.
    http://rcm.amazon.

    I deleted those and it's fine. I think it's only the rcm.amazon. one because I can't see where .assoc-amazon. is referred to in the iframe.

    That's not good.
    I am wondering if this is going to be a problem for my customers who also have adblock plus.
    I'm going to have put in a reference to this in the item description.
