IFrames have made a comeback in XHTML1.1 if you include the IFrame DTD module.
Just do this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus IFrame 1.0//EN" "http://yourdomain/xhtml-11-iframe.dtd";>
where "xhtml-11-iframe.dtd" is a plain text file containing this string:
<!-- ............................................................... --> <!-- XHTML 1.1 plus Iframe 1.0 DTD ................................ -->
<!ENTITY % XHTML.version
"-//iSell//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus IFrame 1.0//EN" >
<!ENTITY % xhtml11.mod
PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"; > %xhtml11.mod;<!ENTITY % xhtml-iframe.mod
PUBLIC "-//W3C//ELEMENTS XHTML Inline Frame Element 1.0//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/DTD/xhtml-iframe-1.mod";> %xhtml-iframe.mod;
<!-- End of XHTML 1.1 plus Iframe 1.0 DTD ......................... --> <!-- ............................................................... -->
The document will then validate.
