iframe content overflow

In Amaya, iframe content overflows its viewing box instead
of setting scrollbars and being hidden ....

<p><em>Inflow frames</em> allow importing external text documents (including
html) into a document complete with styling. Allowed attributes include
frameborder, height, longdesc, marginheight, marginwidth, scrolling and width.</p>
<pre>&lt;iframe id="iframe1" src="dirlist.htm"
        width="450" height="170"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</pre>
<p><span>NOTE:</span> iframes are not supported in <em>STRICT</em> documents.
Replace them with object elements as follows:</p>
<pre>&lt;object id="iframe1" data="dirlist.htm" type="text/html"
     width="450" height="170"&gt;Warning: dirlist.htm could not be embedded!
&lt;/object&gt;</pre>
<iframe id="iframe1" src="dirlist.htm"
width="450" height="170">Warning: dirlist.txt could not be embedded!
</iframe>

<p>The most common use of iframes is to include a newsletter in one or
more documents. This isolates changes in the newsletter and allows dynamic
update. Another use is providing <a href="htmlqwki.htm#ts">scrollable tables</a>
which never seemed to have been implemented although html has provided a
syntax for years ;-[ The method here is to provide the header/footer in
the original document and the actual table in the iframe!</p>

<div class="c"><hr id="bot" />
<a href="home.htm">JR's Home Page</a> | <a href="#top">Top of Page</a> |
<a href="mailto:VE3LL@RAC.CA?Subject=[object.htm]">Comments</a> |
[object.htm:2005 09 021]</div></body></html>
