    Do you outsource your Iframe work? We are very interested in working with you. Is there a number you can be reached?

    Hi Michael, I was reading some of your articles about IFRAME and JavaScript, but still remains one doubt.

    I would appreciate if you could help me.
    I am trying to use IFRAME in a website, but 90% of the references are from external websites, which means that I don’t have any kind of control of the “internal” content.

    When I link to these websites, some of then use JavaScript to control few objects, and when I am using IFRAME, it seems those requests got lost and a lot of funcionalities don’t work.

    Any suggestion!?

    Thanks

    Hi Felipe, I don’t fully follow your scenario, but I get the impression you are coming up against the standard cross-domain restriction of iframes; namely, that under normal circumstances, two “windows” (top-level or iframe) can’t talk to each other. Unless you use a hack like the cross-domain hack in my article, you can’t control the content of another domain’s iframe.
