style=overflow:auto

Does the div have a height set? overflow: auto; only produces a
scrollbar for the div if the div's content is longer than the
specified height of the div. If there is no specified height then the
div grow to fit its content and never show a scrollbar. That is
totallu unaffected by whether the div is inside an iframe or not.

and i don't see no scrollbar

On the div or on the iframe?

is it natural ?

Almost certainly not.

Almost certainly not.

why would you put a scrolling div inside an iframe? i thought scrolling divs
were to be used instead of iframes..
