Transparent Iframe.. 1

[SamHale]

Hey Guys and Girls..

Is there anyway of having an iframe with a transparent bg ?

My main page has the url in dark grey on black as the bg, constantly repeated. So I want the iframe to have the same. I tried setting the iframe bg to the same image, but it overlaps too bad, cutting url's in half.

Hope you can understand, I can't explain things very well.
Thanks.

Sam.

Sure can...

Check out the "allowTransparency" atrtribute:

There is an example further down the page on the above URL.

Hope this helps,
Dan

There are two things you have to do. Within the declaration of the iframe include the following...

<iframe ..... allowtransparency="true" ...... >

Then within the CSS for the body tag of the iframe, have the following attribute:

background-color:transparent;

Hope this helps.
