Webmaster Questions and Answers

Question: Two years ago I saw that there is a simple way using the Frames tag to keep my page from being "framed" by another Website. What is this technique?

Answer: Excellent question. There are two popular Javascripts being used to keep other sites from framing your Website. I've listed both directly below (you need only use one or the other).

FIRST OPTION:

<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
function breakOut() {
if (self != top)
window.open("my URL","_top","");
}
// -->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY onLoad="breakOut()">

SECOND OPTION:

<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
if (top.frames.length!=0)
top.location=self.document.location;
// -->
</SCRIPT>

Put one of these scripts on the page you don't want framed and other sites won't be able to successfully frame your page within their site. You must put the script on every page you don't want framed.
