<iframe> and <ilayer> are functionally 'simillar'. At this point and until NS

use the other as well. I have seen some clever scripts for switching them around.
One such script can be found on "The Sims". A new computer game from Maxis.
It uses it to make the pages for the Sim-family albumn.

That one uses <iframe> and <layer>, but it should get the point across.
