Dealing with<iframe> is one major issue. <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.oercommons.org">http://www.oercommons.org</a> uses<iframe> to display the contents of OER items that are from other websites. In this example page - <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.oercommons.org/courses/acoustics-for-music-theory/view">http://www.oercommons.org/courses/acoustics-for-music-theory/view</a>,<iframe> points to an external link <a rel="nofollow" href="http://cnx.org/content/m13246/latest/">http://cnx.org/content/m13246/latest/</a>. As predictable, the UIO settings' adjustments aren't able to be applied onto the iframe content. I'm listing 2 ideas that were in my mind but all turned out mission-impossible in case they could be fleshed out: 1. Replace iframe with div by ajax fetching the external link and displaying<body> part in a div. However, maintaining the css styling, js and other inclusions would be a good problem at the drop of<head>. 2. Improve UIO to deal with this type of<iframe>, which involves the cross site scripting that is against the "law". Your thoughts are appreciated.
