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.
