The HTMLIFrameElement interface provides special properties and methods (beyond those of the HTMLElement interface it also has available to it by inheritance) for manipulating the layout and presentation of inline frame elements.
The HTMLIFrameElement interface provides special properties and methods (beyond those of the HTMLElement interface it also has available to it by inheritance) for manipulating the layout and presentation of inline frame elements.
Inherits properties from its parent, HTMLElement.
HTMLIFrameElement.align Deprecated
A string that specifies the alignment of the frame with respect to the surrounding context.
HTMLIFrameElement.allowA list of origins the frame is allowed to display content from. This attribute also accepts the values self and src which represent the origin in the iframe's src attribute. The default value is src.
HTMLIFrameElement.allowfullscreen Experimental
A boolean value indicating whether the inline frame is willing to be placed into full screen mode. See Using fullscreen mode for details.
HTMLIFrameElement.allowPaymentRequest Deprecated Non-standard
A boolean value indicating whether the Payment Request API may be invoked inside a cross-origin iframe.
HTMLIFrameElement.contentDocument Read only
Returns a Document, the active document in the inline frame's nested browsing context.
HTMLIFrameElement.contentWindow Read only
Returns a WindowProxy, the window proxy for the nested browsing context.
HTMLIFrameElement.credentialless Experimental
A boolean value indicating whether the <iframe> is credentialless, meaning that its content is loaded in a new, ephemeral context. This context does not have access to the parent context's shared storage and credentials. In return, the Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy (COEP) embedding rules can be lifted, so documents with COEP set can embed third-party documents that do not. See IFrame credentialless for a deeper explanation.
HTMLIFrameElement.csp Experimental
Specifies the Content Security Policy that an embedded document must agree to enforce upon itself.
HTMLIFrameElement.frameBorder Deprecated
A string that indicates whether to create borders between frames.
HTMLIFrameElement.heightA string that reflects the height HTML attribute, indicating the height of the frame.
HTMLIFrameElement.longDesc Deprecated
A string that contains the URI of a long description of the frame.
HTMLIFrameElement.marginHeight Deprecated
A string being the height of the frame margin.
HTMLIFrameElement.marginWidth Deprecated
A string being the width of the frame margin.
HTMLIFrameElement.nameA string that reflects the name HTML attribute, containing a name by which to refer to the frame.
HTMLIFrameElement.featurePolicy Read only Experimental
Returns the FeaturePolicy interface which provides a simple API for introspecting the Permissions Policies applied to a specific document.
HTMLIFrameElement.referrerPolicyA string that reflects the referrerPolicy HTML attribute indicating which referrer to use when fetching the linked resource.
HTMLIFrameElement.sandboxA DOMTokenList that reflects the sandbox HTML attribute, indicating extra restrictions on the behavior of the nested content.
HTMLIFrameElement.scrolling Deprecated
A string that indicates whether the browser should provide scrollbars for the frame.
HTMLIFrameElement.srcA string that reflects the src HTML attribute, containing the address of the content to be embedded. Note that programmatically removing an <iframe>'s src attribute (e.g. via Element.removeAttribute()) causes about:blank to be loaded in the frame in Firefox (from version 65), Chromium-based browsers, and Safari/iOS.
HTMLIFrameElement.srcdocA string that represents the content to display in the frame.
HTMLIFrameElement.widthA string that reflects the width HTML attribute, indicating the width of the frame.
