I Frames & Firefox + noscroll :)

Hey guys I am new here and looking for a little help.

I’ve always used internet explore to view my web sites, and I really enjoy using iframes .. I know or heard that this practice is taboo, what’s also going to make you laugh is the fact I don’t use external CSS files… so now I have a problem.

I built a site with I Frames, I need these I Frames to be no scroll.. in every browser… Internet Explore & Firefox & hopefully Safari.

The reason behind the I Frames is the fact this web site will be graphically heavy and I didn’t want the customer to have to re load the page every time, also our web forum now fits completely snug into the site..

You would be the saver of my day if you could help me figure this out, the project I am working on gets worse because my customer originally build the site in I WEB and now I am re doing everything from scratch in Photoshop and Dreamweaver…

If your looking for a laugh check out the Original site http://www.coinglob.com
I DIDN’T MAKE THIS!!

I cant stand iFrame method!

From what I am aware, FireFox is more web standard stringent: http://www.w3.org/
So set the propoertie complient to that and it would also work in IE!

But I recommend going away from iFrames.
Maybe use PHP Include method? http://www.php.net/include/

Well, for one thing you have to take this out of your html

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
That will throw IE into quirks mode everytime - get rid of it.

Iframes, quite frankly, are a bad idea for numerous reasons. They're horrible for search engines, and they increase your page load times because you're actually loading multiple pages.

I'm not sure I understand what you're getting at here, but if you are thinking that every page image gets downloaded numerous times, you do not understand how HTTP and the browser cache works.

Here is the code I use for my iFrames that don't scroll...It's quite easy, I don't know why you're getting confused.
Code:
<iframe src="yourpage.html" name="iframename" width="" height="" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>
Hope this helps
