IFRAME should work with most browsers, but may look crappy on Internet Explorer (because you can't switch off the borders there.) But who cares about IE anyway. ;)
Maybe i'm miss understanding, but using frameborder="0" seems to remove the border in both IE and Firefox....

e.g.

<iframe frameborder="0" SRC="meiframe.htm" ></iframe>

Unfortunately, I have to. =)
50.4% use Firefox.
29.1% of the visitors to the site use IE of various versions, mostly version 6 though.
12% use Opera.
1.3% use Netscape (most of them use 7.02)
7% use various other browsers, many of which I have never even heard of. =)

A thought - would it be acceptable to have the shoutbox in a separate pop-up? (ofcourse as an option)
That would get us around various browser version related problems and give navigation freedom on the page.

Personally I hate any kind of pop up, and I always have pop up suppression on in Netscape.

Also the pop up window would have to be truly floating or it would pop under the main window all the time rendering it useless.

Another possibility would be to use JavaScript DOM techniques. But that's kind of a hassle.

Pop-ups suck. Period. People have to stop using them, especially now that XP SP2 blocks them per default. A solution with scripted layers is better, as Lman points out.

It was kind of a hassle, yes, but it should now be in place.
Hope it works for you guys!

If this works as expected, I might even do the song voting this way.

Thanks to Boz who helped out trying to find a good solution!
