An IFRAME is a frame (an area displaying a different HTML document)
which is an inline document element (thus can be placed in any place in
the document, just like an image).

Lynx doesn't support frames in any way. It should provide a link to the
IFRAME, just like it does with regular FRAMEs, I think.

Yup. And it won't do IFRAMEs either (though it would do the proprietary
<LAYER SRC="..."></LAYER>).

How about iGuides producing the news in an image form? :)
