I have a website that uses iframes and a visitor told me that the frames won't load for her whenever she uses IE7. The problem doesn't happen for anyone else who visits the site using IE so I think it's probably just her computer, and not my html.

Does anyone have any ideas how she might correct the problem? The only thing I could think of was that an ad-blocker might be stopping the pages from loading, so I told her to add the site to the list of 'allowed sites' in IE's pop-up blocker but she tried it and says it still doesn't work.

<iframe src="news.html" id="news" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="yes" frameborder="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" style="overflow:visible; position:absolute; top: 12; left: 611; width: 139; height: 256">
This page cannot be displayed because the browser you're using does not support iframes. Please try using a different web browser.
</iframe>

<iframe src="navigation.html" id="navigation" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" style="overflow:visible; position:absolute; top: 296; left: 611; width: 139; height: 750">

Works fine here in IE 7, perhaps your visitor has iframe disabled.

Is there any way for her to... enable(?) iframes? Like, is there some setting in IE that you go to to change it?

Just looking at the various options in IE 7, I don't see one specifically for iframes or frames, at least not for ones with src pages on the same domain, as you have on your page. I may have missed it, but I suspect that it is an add on that is preventing this visitor from seeing the iframe. Perhaps something in Vista - if they use Vista, or a third party add on.

As of default IE7 support iframs but may not work in some cases if someone is using a form to post some data through iframes.
