lol, I wish I could (even though I do love Objective-C)!
I can modify the WO4 code. I am trying to limit this as it's a dead
investment.
Take a look at modalbox.js in Wonder's Ajax framework. It resizes the
modal dialog when the content changes. Maybe you can do something
similar with the IFrame, return some JS that determines content size
and resizes the frame. I don't know if that is even possible.
Otherwise... nothing comes to mind. Can you just move between the
applications and keep the look consistent?

We have a bunch of legacy stuff still in WO4, and I would like to

the progress of some of our apps along into WO5...but I can't move

all just yet. Basically the logic of our "shopping cart" has to
remain in WO4 for now, but the rest of the application could move on
(which would be nice).
So I thought..."Aha! I'll do an iframe and have the shopping cart
be a
separate application." The problem is that an iframe doesn't size to
it's content...which means that as lines get added to an order the
iframe will either scroll or just visually truncate.
Since I need the user to interact with this application inside the
iframe I don't think I can just use a DIV and load the html through
javascript (because the hrefs served up by the WO4 app will need
to be
redrawn only in this DIV).
Other than 1) Stay in WO4 or 2) Port everything to WO5 does anyone
have any ideas?
Run away? :-)
Can you modify the WO4 code at all?
