Okay, what I'm trying to achieve is a side bar with 1 global scrollbar. The problem I ran into was iframes don't resize to fit the content inside of them (Like div tags do). I'm stuck with an iframe because it has a .src method in which I can load a RDF Flash panel. I have been told that the iframes in the side panel are sand boxed so I can't clone the node and paste it in a div. What I need is some way to load a src and have the box operate like a div. A .src method could be added to the box A new xul <panel> tag could be created. .src could be added to div's when its in an xul (Dunno if this one is possible) a new attribute could be added to iframe to make it resize to fit its contents

resolving as later, per hyatt's last comment.
I should amend that and say that I don't have time to do it, but it certainly sounds reasonable. :) I'd take a patch that implemented it.
