Hello,

We have a client who wants integration between two different open source programs and wants the 2nd open source application to be inside the main site like a wrapper or iframe however this person does not wish to have any scroll bars and it appear to be part of the page, is there a way to develop another website into a main website using Iframe, Wrapper or similar coding that is auto height and width?

Or will we need to develop the same theme for the second application?

Look forward to the responses.

Thanks for your time.

Iframes don't have a built in way to be "auto height". You can tell them not to scroll, but then the excess content will just be hidden. The only solution is to resize the frame depending on how large the content inside it is. The height of the framed content can be read with JavaScript, then communicated to the parent page so that the frame can be updated proportionally.

If you use jQuery, there is an auto height plugin that will do this work for you: http://www.lost-in-code.com/programm...iframe-height/

As far as the width is concerned, the only solution needed is to make it 100% of the container.
