HI Steven

Your tip helps alot! Thank you.. Here's what I did:

        $("#dialog").parent().bind("resize", function(){
                  $("#content").height($("#dialog").height()-220);
                  $("#content").width($("#dialog").width());
          } );

<iframe id="content" src="working.do" style="margin-top: 0; margin-
bottom:0;position: absolute;"></iframe>

Where #dialog is the dialog div tag. Now, the problem it seems is that
resizing is sticky. When I try to drag the edges of the dialog
windows, there is a lot of delay and it is jumpy. I am not sure if its
related to the iframe resize sticky issue.
