OK, so I think I've fixed my tiddler info problem so you can see the drop down. I made it z-index over the top of the embedded iframe. It doesn't slide the tiddler down, but at least you can see everything in the tiddler info drop down and I get to keep my fully expanded iframe with controls that show in the upper right corner. If you want to check it out, it's at _canonical_uri Example <http://t5a.tiddlyspot.com/#_canonical_uri%20Example>.
