iFrames

[iLogan]

Just a wild suggestion, but why doesn't Habbox Forum use iFrames, like the whole forum display could be an iFrame and the header / title bit, just the main page. etc

[BobJ]

Because iFrames are ugly and old.

[iLogan]

If they did it properly you wouldn't really notice the difference, instead of having the load the static header everytime?

[Jamesy]

Because the templates don't work that way and the header contains all the calls for PMs, logging in and such. It would simply be silly!

[Mr-Trainor]

I personally don't think it would work very well for the forum :(.

[BobJ]

habbox.com used to use iFrames back in the old days.

[Jin]

To do so, would involve scrapping the vBulletin board and just recoding the whole thing as there wouldn't be a nice way of modifying it so it could do so. Which for obvious reasons we are not really willing to do so.

Thanks for the feedback.

EDIT: We do heavily cache our sites to help reduce page load on static content.
