customizing size of an iframe within a webpage

Question

i am displaying a remote webpage on my site like this:

<iframe src="http://www.smopething.com/index.cfm"

frameborder="0"
width="800"
scrolling="no"
height="1100">

</iframe> 

is it possible for me to customize the size of it? something like <iframe src="etc", height=something,width=something> ???

Answer 1

The best ways are:

For just height/width, IFRAME has height/width attributes, as seen in W3C spec.

For more control, enclose the iframe into a DIV element and then style the size of the DIV with CSS (it may work if you apply CSS directly to the IFRAME but I am not 100% certain of that)

Answer 2

You can use CSS if you like:

<iframe src="http://google.com" style="width:640px;height:480px;"></iframe>

Or you could use the width and height attributes:

<iframe src="http://google.com" width="640" height="480"></iframe>
