litebearer Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Perhaps today is another of those days when senility has taken charge but; if your goal is to avoid having a scroll bar, the answer is NOT having the iframe size increase with the size of the file. Think about it, once the iframe 'grows' larger than the screen a scroll bar will appear.Making an iframe expand with file size is, I believe, accomplished via javascripting; that being the case, as it appears that the visual presentation is important to you, might I suggest you look at this...http://www.dyn-web.com/dhtml/iframes/Lite...

Setting the iframe's src to an external site such as "http://www.google.com" will not work, since the script cannot probe and detect the height of pages from external domains.[/quote]Lite...
