Web developers sometimes find it necessary or desirable to include content from one website within another. This is helpful if you wish to showcase multiple websites within a single page. Using an HTML tag called “iframe” (short for inline frame) allows you to import one (or more) full website to a webpage, and then specify criteria for how those imported sites are displayed. Inline frames are widely used, supported by most web browsers and easy to implement. frameborder="(1)" – This attribute controls whether or not there is a border around the iframe. The numerical value represents the border’s thickness. marginheight="(1px)" and marginwidth="(1px)" – These attributes specify the iframe’s top/bottom and left/right margins, respectively. Margin, which is stated in pixels, is the amount of space between the outside of the iframe and the containing element. scrolling="(yes)" – This attribute controls whether or not a scroll bar will appear beside an iframe. This attribute can be set as “yes” (always displays a scroll bar), “no” (never displays a scroll bar) or “auto” (may display a scroll bar, depending on certain criteria). If you set this attribute’s value to “no,” the iframe’s content will be limited to whatever fits inside the specified height and width. Writer Bio
