I am starting a free hosting business, and I want to have a static bar at the bottom of the browser, to all sites on my server, something like what namedemo was doing with their free domain names! This will be like a frame at the bottom! All clients pages etc. will open in the top frame, I need someone to help me set this up. Let me know if you can do it and how much you will charge etc. you can pm me, email me, or post here, which ever.

But, I want to do this asap, so please hurry! :)


Thanks a lot!

Well - you need to do apache handlers for this and create your own handler script that can insert the frameset code. I just wrote a simple perl script to do this - however you may want to consider not using frames :) as they are problematic - and use something like javascript watermarks or banner insertion.

You can also get a header / footer mod for apache so you don't have to write your own program.

by javascript watermarks and banner insertion, you mean like tripod does, just insert the banner on their page...right?

What are the big downsides to doing it with a frame?

Frames just cause problems for users from my experience :) Most freehost users want something simple - and not have to dive into framesets and all that stuff.
