Soon? Netscape doesn't even support OBJECT yet, does it? Is there any
reference material for how this should work? What happens when the
included file has a background, includes a style sheet, or extends
below the defined space? Will manual scrolling be a parameter?
Automatic scrolling?

With the appropriate parameters, this sounds like a much better
incarnation of Microsoft's IFRAME.

I notice, though, that this code currently puts MSIE 3 in limbo after a
security warning appears, and the alternate text isn't displayed.
