Description

The HTML Inline Frame element (<iframe>) represents a nested browsing context, embedding another HTML page into the current one.

Each embedded browsing context has its own session history and document.

The browsing context that embeds the others is called the parent browsing context.

The topmost browsing context — the one with no parent — is usually the browser window, represented by the Window object .
