Hi I have an iframe on my website and it will load new content inside of the iframe when a user clicks on a link. You never navigate away from the page. Is there a way to display the source of the iframe or the html file that is being displayed in the iframe in the web browsers address bar? I would like to do this using JavaScript. I do not really want to use PHP or SSI on my website because of the capacity of the server.
Also I do not know if this matters but the primary way that the information is displayed in the iframe is through a flash menu bar.

AFAIK, no. It seems pretty logical that the URL in the address bar doesn't change given that the user hasn't navigated away from the resource/web page and is shown new content which is shipped to and fro via remote scripting.

I don't accept change; I don't deserve to live.

you could put it in the status bar
not familiar with flash
but
<iframe id='name' src='file1.html'>iframe</iframe>
<a onclick="document.name.src='file2.html';window.status='file2.html';">Next page</a>
the flash equivalent should work

Have you tired that? I cant right now because of time but it sounds like this is not possible without PHP or something of the equivalent.
Thank you though

javascript operates "without PHP or something of the equivalent."
used in many scripts to display prompts in the status bar
here is a bunch of them
