Frames vs. Layers
When publishing localendar within a website, is it possible to insert the calendar coding into a layer instead of a frame, or is it supported within a frame only? I haven't tried it yet as I'm still in the process of building the site.

Re: Frames vs. Layers
You'd have to define what you mean by Layer, since the term has had several uses. The old "<layer>" tag is pretty much a thing of the past. Many people now use "layer" related to overlapping <div>'s.

The latter case is supported, but you might choose to use the non-interactive embedded style (under the Publish wizard). Not using an iframe means you loose the ability to navigate the calendar forward/backward, but the event pop-ups will still work normally. The calendar will always display the current month/week/day (depending on the view you have selected)

Re: Frames vs. Layers
Thank you.

I was definitely referring to "<div>" rather than layer, but I'm using Dw8 which still refers to it as "<layer>". I will give it a shot and see what happens!
