Example
The following toggleIFrameScroll() function accepts a string of the IFRAME
element’s ID as a parameter and switches between on and off scroll bars in the
IFRAME. The if condition checks whether the property is set to something other
than no. This test allows the condition to evaluate to true if the property is set to
either auto (the first time) or yes (as set by the function).
function toggleFrameScroll(frameID) {
// IE5 & NN6 version
var theFrame = document.getElementById(frameID)
// IE4+ version
// var theFrame = document.all[frameID]
if (theFrame.scrolling != “no”) {
theFrame.scrolling = “no”
} else {
theFrame.scrolling = “yes”
}
}

Example
For best results, use fully formed URLs as value for the src property, as shown
here:
document.getElementById(“myIframe”).src = “http://www.dannyg.com”
Relative URLs and javascript: pseudo-URLs also work most of the time.
