IE 8 iframe border

Question

There is a border showing on an iframe and I can\'t get rid of it.

IE 6 and 7 work as intended with a little JavaScript:

Answer 1

If you want your code to validate you could do this with javascript. I found the perfect answer when I had this problem a few months ago here

var iframe = document.createElement("iframe");
 iframe.src = "banner_728x90.gif";
 iframe.width = "728";
 iframe.height = "90";
 iframe.frameBorder = "0";
 iframe.scrolling = "no";
 document.body.appendChild(iframe);

f you want to load another page seamless in the iframe you can do this if you copy and paste this code into the head of your page. I found it on a site with free scripts. The performance is good in most cases

function getDocHeight(doc) {
    doc = doc || document;
    var body = doc.body, html = doc.documentElement;
    var height = Math.max( body.scrollHeight, body.offsetHeight, html.clientHeight, html.scrollHeight, html.offsetHeight );
    return height;
}
function setIframeHeight(id) {
    var ifrm = document.getElementById(id);
    var doc = ifrm.contentDocument? ifrm.contentDocument: ifrm.contentWindow.document;
    ifrm.style.visibility = 'hidden';
    ifrm.style.height = "10px"; // reset to minimal height in case going from longer to shorter doc
    ifrm.style.height = getDocHeight( doc ) + 10 + "px";
    ifrm.style.visibility = 'visible';
}

You then give your iframe an id and call the script on load. This is how.

var iframe = document.createElement("iframe");
 iframe.setAttribute('id', "ifrm1");
 iframe.setAttribute('src', 'http://www.hekcmviw.com/'); // change the URL
 iframe.setAttribute('width', '100%');
 iframe.setAttribute('height', '10');
 iframe.setAttribute('frameBorder', '0');
 iframe.setAttribute('scrolling', 'no');
 iframe.setAttribute('onload' ,"setIframeHeight(this.id)");
 document.body.appendChild(iframe);
