Replacing IFRAME

[Yamaha_R1]

Amazon associates program uses IFRAME for most ad blocks.

But some of my sites are XHTML and HTML strict, and IFRAME doesn't validate.

How can I replace that with a DIV or other valid element, and still use "src=....." to fill the frame?

You can attempt to replace the

iframe

with the

object

element, however

object

support accross browsers is generally poor. I would not risk it in this case, not least for the reason that you don't want to lose revenue because an ad doesn't display!

You have two options: the first is to continue using strict doctypes and merely ignore the error about unrecognized

iframe

(this will have no influence whatsoever of the browser's ability to parse the page), or to switch to transitional doctypes to remain valid.
