HTML iframe Tag
The information on this page is based on HTML version 4.01 (which is the current version of HTML). The next version, HTML 5, is currently being written. Here's a list of HTML 5 tags.
The HTML iframe tag is used to specify an inline frame.
An inline frame allows you to embed another document within the current HTML document. You use the iframe src attribute to specify the source of the other document, as well as other attributes to determine the height, width, scrolling properties, border etc.
| Example |
<iframe src="/pix/milford_sound/milford_sound_t.jpg"
width="200"
height="150"
scrolling="auto"
frameborder="1">
