HTML <iframe> style Attribute

A style attribute on an <iframe> tag assigns a unique style to the element.

Its value is CSS that defines the appearance of the iframe element.

Example

#

A style attribute on an <iframe> element.

<iframe src="https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vincent_van_Gogh"
        style="border:4px solid teal;height:450px;width:100%;">
</iframe>

Using style

The style attribute specifies the style, i.e. look and feel, of the <iframe> element.

A style contains any number of CSS property/value pairs, separated by semicolons (;).

The style attribute overrides any other style that was defined in a <style> tag or an external CSS file.

This inline styling affects the current <iframe> element only.


Syntax

<iframe style="CSS-styles">

</iframe>

<br /><br />
<button type="button" onclick="toggle();">Toggle style</button>

<script>
  let toggle = () => {
    let element = document.getElementById("myiframe");

    if (element.style.borderColor === "teal") {
       element.style.borderColor = "tomato";
    } else {
       element.style.borderColor = "teal";
    }
  }
</script>

The style attribute assigns a border to the <iframe> element.

Repeatedly clicking the button calls JavaScript that changes the border color.
