I don't know, maybe he doesn't want any scrollbars? I don't know, I'm just being subjective. The only other thing I can think of are <br> tags, but that makes no sense.

My guess is that he wants information on the 'borderwidth=0' attribute. Or perhaps 'scrolling="no"'.
Does 'bordercolor' work on IFRAMES?

Or set the table width and height to 100%. :)

Well, what about Netscape and other browsers than IE? Doesn't IFRAME work only in IE? Is there any similar sintax to be used in Netscape, however - every page must first find out what browser runs it, but is it possible at all?

All modern graphical browsers that I'm aware of support iFrames, however you should always provide an alternative for those using older or text based ones.

While 5, 6, and 7 do, Netscape 4 does not support iFrames. It has a similar structure called iLayer, which is identical to an iFrame except it doesn't scroll (it can be made to with JavaScript, but I'd advise against it).

Depending on what you're doing, you could use something like this on your pages:


<iframe src="page.html">
<ilayer src="page.html">
<a href="page.html">Click Here</a>
</ilayer>
</iframe>

Most will see the iFrame. Those without iFrame support will see the iLayer if they support that, or the link if they don't. Doing something like this will allow everyone access to your website.

iframe element is part of HTML4 spec, so browser developers should be blamed if their latest version of their browsers doesn't support this.
