Set the size of an IFRAME

[Guest_imported]

Hi all,
I'm using IFRAMES linked to html, htm or xml files. I want to adjust the sizes of these IFRAMES according to the sizes of the documents. How can I do that? The "style='width:100%'" works fine...but what about the height? I cannot make it working. Has someone a solution?
thx
david

You can use:

<iframe src=&quot;x.htm&quot; width=&quot;100%&quot; height=&quot;100%&quot;>
</iframe>

or:

<iframe src=&quot;x.htm&quot; width=&quot;100px&quot; height=&quot;100px&quot;>
</iframe>

it works in IE 5

If you go to

http://www.w3schools.com/html/

you can edit your own HTML code, to see if it works..

My problem is when I'm using &quot;%&quot; with the height nothing is displayed. If I'm using pixels it works. That's very strange.

In fact, the problem is that if you use &quot;%&quot; and if the page where you display the iframe is not enough big, the scrollbars won't work. Because, the window doesn't know the size of the Iframe...and it's not the case when you use pixels...because the window knows the size.
If someone has the solution he's of course welcomed.
thx

This will work for you:

<DIV STYLE=&quot;position:absolute; left:100px; top:100px; width:200px; height:200px; z-index:1&quot;>
<IFRAME SRC=&quot;file.html&quot; NAME=&quot;IFRAME&quot; WIDTH=&quot;200&quot; HEIGHT=&quot;200&quot; BOTTOMSCROLL=&quot;NO&quot; FRAMEBORDER=&quot;1&quot;>
</IFRAME>
</DIV>
Make sure you set the width the same in both <DIV> nad <IFRAME> tags, and the same for Height. You can also specify the placement of where you want the Iframe on the page.

Hope this helps.
