This is a hack of the famous PostWrap 2.5 module created by Spidean which lets you display external content on your page via an IFRAME. It does this by dynamically resizing the IFRAME to be the height of the page contained within it, eliminating any possible IFRAME scrollbars!!! from appearing while showing the entire external content.
It works along an script wich it does the work to size properly IT REALLY WORKS!!!!

Personally, I don't mind product announcements as long as people are upfront about it, though the Power-That-Be has decreed it a Bad Thing. Apparently that has caused some conflict.
I'll check it out when I get home though. Something on the page, presumably some JS, is causing an awful slowdown in IE for Mac here. You do seem to love your Javascript!
The trick is not to resize frames with local content, it's resizing frames with external pages. It's theoretically impossible, at least in HTML and Javascript, due to security restrictions. The only way to do that is via server-side scripting, like PHP.
Haven't checked PostWrap lately, but why he wouldn't have included a resize script for local pages I don't know. There's probably a cross-browser issue I suppose.
I see it's a Dynamic Drive script, interesting. Reading the DynamicDrive page, I notice it requires NS6+ or IE5+, which is fine, but excluding Opera and Safari users among others is unfortunate. The default setting is to hide the iframe altogether from them.
Web Standards, my foot. -

Well, I can confirm it doesn't work in Opera. iFrameHide is set to Yes in your page, meaning it won't show for non-supported browsers, not sure what it would look like if it was off. Presumably it won't work in Safari either as the script developer suggests.
