Iframes are a way to embed one webpage inside the markup of another. Iframe tag acts as a container for a different webpage, basically you get a browser window inside a browser window that acts independently. I used it a while back to build a simple portal app, basically the portal container would have a bunch if iframe tags that would load the portlets, that way the user can interact with each portlet without having to refresh the page and thus reload all other portlets. http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/special/iframe.html
