What an iframe does is produce a window inside your browser that opens a web page in that window. If the web page the iframe points to is the same one the iframe is in, then (unless there is a safety measure I am unaware of) your computer opens the page, sees the iframe statement, and opens the page the iframe refers to - which contains the iframe; in opening that page, your coputer sees the iframe statement, and opens the page the iframe refers to - which contains the iframe; in opening that page, your coputer sees the iframe statement, and opens the page the iframe refers to - which contains the iframe; in opening that page, your coputer sees the iframe statement, and opens the page the iframe refers to - which contains the iframe; in opening that page, your coputer sees the iframe statement, and ... gets stuck in an infinite loop until it can no longer open the page the iframe it is currently working on refers to due to memory problems or the user goes to a different page. Fortunately, I'm not your computer, and don't fall for the same trap.
In short, the iframe refers to itself, and your computer dilligently follows the circle to the limit of it's resources. Hence, it's called a circular reference.

Sorry about that.
Hmm, Krsqk seems to be offline; should I take the next post?

"Let me guess - you tried a circular reference with iframes."
Yup. Handled it better than I was expecting, actually. It works fine if you navigate to the same page after it loads, just not as the default page.

Re: this is a thread to attract SE4 forumers to the first Dungeon Oddessy roleplay thread
Pheonix-D:
Yeah; if you set it as the default, it automatically loads the same page again and again. While the Cache allows it to avoid clogging the network so much, it tries to keep an infinite number of copies of a page in memory at once. It can't do that, but it tries, filling up a huge chunk of memory, which would cause the quirky behavior. If it isn't circular by default, and you just navigate back to it, the iframe only tries to hold a limited quantity of them: The main, the one you navigated to, and the one the inner iframe is set for. You could theoretically navigate manually to overload the system when the iframe isn't in the default page, but you would need to do a lot of navigation by hand to make it happen.
Hmm, Narf and Krsqk seem to be offline at the moment, so I suppose I'll have Jack get up.

Back to the original mage's cave? I'm starting to wish that Jack had been more places. Arthur's mountain and John's workroom will never be the same again.

You're right - missed that. For that matter, Narp never got his armor cleaned out from the first time. Grr. Let's see....
.... clipped the party-moving portion out.
