Is there any way to test, using JavaScript, VBScript, ASP, or whatever, to
see if the web page displayed is being displayed in an iFrame?
 
Or right click in the middle of the page and see if the context menu has an option to "Open frame in
new window."

;-)

OK Victor, I'll answer your original question:
:::: Is there any way to test, using JavaScript,
VBScript,

:::: being displayed in an iFrame?


Yes you can do it. You would need to read the source in as
a string and then parse the string to look for the <iframe>
tag.

I tried this and got an error.

The code should read

<script type="text/javascript">
if(this.location!=top.location)alert('You\'ve been framed')
</script>

Without the escape character (\), the quote(') after "You" is read as the
end of the text for the alert and the rest is then read in as JS and fails

This also works:
<script type="text/javascript">
if(this.location!=top.location)alert("You've been framed")
</script>
