Adding inline frame to a table cell causes tripple height in Preview

Hi,

I added an inline frame to a cell in a table, specifying 100% for the width
and height. In normal mode the inline frame looks perfect, just the way that
I would expect. In the preview pane as in the actual display on a browser
the cell displays 3-times bigger than it is supposed to. Any thoughts? I've
copied the HTML source for the table, if that helps.

Thanks in advance,

Give the inline frame an exact height in pixels.

Also, beware that not all browsers can display inline
frames.

Hi Jim,

That worked!!!!!!!!! Yippee! Why didn't the 100% relative height to the cell
work?

The inline frame has a default height, and the cell apparently sized
itself to the iframe before the iframe sized itself to the cell.
