I am adding an Iframe datafeed into one of my pages and i would like my users to be able to scroll down the feed using the standard Internet explorer scroller to the right of the screen and NOT the one inside the page.

However, my feed is constantly changing its height and width and therefore this makes it tricky, anyone have any suggestions to get arounbd this?

Have you thought about not using iframes? an option would be to cache the contents you would have had in the iframe and just output it to the main page.
In php this is easy to acheive.

Other than that, there is some javascript kicking around which will let you scroll another frame.

thanks for the reply,

I am not great when it comes to php, could you let me know how to cache the contents?

I'd be interested in that also.
