<IFRAME ...> is an HTML 4.0 addition to the frames toolbox. Currently only MSIE supports <IFRAME ...> .

Unlike frames created using <FRAMESET ...> and <FRAME ...> , <IFRAME ...> creates a frame that sits in the middle of a regular non-framed web page. <IFRAME ...> works like <IMG ...> , only instead of putting a picture on the page, it puts another web page.

For example, within the same directory as this page there is a file called "/hello.html". This code puts hello.html into an inline frame:

<IFRAME SRC="hello.html" WIDTH=450 HEIGHT=100>
If you can see this, your browser doesn't 
understand IFRAME. However, we'll still 
<A HREF="hello.html">link</A> 
you to the file.
</IFRAME>

which gives us this inline frame:

Here's what the code means:

IFRAME

The name of the <IFRAME ...> tag

SRC="hello.html"

The URL of the document to show in the inline frame.

WIDTH=450 HEIGHT=100

The dimensions of the inline frame.

If you can see this, your browser doesn't understand IFRAME. However, we'll still <A HREF="hello.html">link</A> you to the file.

Code between <IFRAME ...> and </IFRAME> is not displayed by browsers that understand <IFRAME ...> . Browsers that do not understand <IFRAME ...> will display this code (because they don't know to ignore it).

You can do most of the things with <IFRAME ...> that you can do with regular frames, including set the frame border , set internal margins , and set if there are scroll bars . You can use the attribute so that you can set links to target the frame.

You can also control a few settings similar to the <IMG ...> tag, including ALIGN , HSPACE , and VSPACE .
