onscroll event in iframe in IE

[lorinho]

Alright, I'm stumped. Per this article from Microsoft I should be able
to capture the onscroll event for an iframe but for some reason it
doesn't seem to be working for me...

Has anyone made this work successfully before?

What is not working, does onscroll not fire, or does the scrolling
position on the frame that you want to synchronize not change, or do you
get a security error ("permission denied").

That article is old and if you are using IE 6 in strict mode then
instead of manipulating
window.document.body.scrollTop
you would need to manipulate
window.document.documentElement.scrollTop

I'm able to get to the document body of the iframe and manipulate it
(change background color for example) but I can't capture the onscroll
event of the iframe... Any other ideas?
Thanks,
