HTML iframe Tag

The HTML iframe tag is used to specify an inline frame.

An inline frame allows you to embed another document within the current HTML document. You use the iframe src attribute to specify the source of the other document, as well as other attributes to determine the height, width, scrolling properties, border etc.

Example


<iframe src="/pix/milford_sound/milford_sound_t.jpg"
  width="200"
  height="150"
  scrolling="auto"
  frameborder="1">
  <!--This bit is only viewed by browsers that don't support inline frames -->
  Your browser doesn't support inline frames.
</iframe>

The above code produces the following inline frame:
