I am using an iframe with my page, and in FireFox it works just fine, but in IE the iframe acquires a horizontal scroll bar. All the pages that show up in the iframe are set at 100% width with no margins. I have tried making the pages have a smaller width but all that does is shrink the content inside but leaves the scroll bar. Can anyone help?

heres the link to my site if you need to see it http://iblob.info/

Hi

Have a go at putting scrolling="no" inside the IFRAME tag. IF you need vertical scrolling, scrolling="vertical" should do it.

Show me the results!

thanks, ill try that. and i found out that it only has the horizontal scroll bar if you are viewing on WinXP with IE. Win 98 doesnt do it... weird.

Hello again

Just had a look at your code. You have put scrolling="verticle" in your iframe tag. Despite being spelt wrong (vertical) this would imply that you wanted the vertical scrollbars to be present.

Also the difference between the XP and 98 appearance is very odd. Are you sure they're using the same browser version? That's the only possibility I can think of.

Again, let me know when you upload new code so I can see the results.

Andy
