I think that i'm having the same issue at the moment, i've only just started trying to get it set up, i'll let you know about any further developments…

This looks like a great bit of programming, i'm having a little bit of trouble setting it up, but enjoying it all the same - very fun to play with!!
Cheers,

Hi, I have solved the problem in the meantime. See the code below. I did not use the JavaScript Version but the inframe option.
