That longer page is on a secure portion of your server. Because of that, not even IE is resizing the iframe for it. It is treating it as though it were on another domain because the base location is different (https instead of http). Parent and child content cannot communicate across domains for the purposes of this or any other iframe resizing script. If you were to put all of the pages involved, the top page as well as all the possible children on the secure portion of the server, it might work. You would still need to work out the layout problems. So, if you are in a hurry, it might be best (as you suggested) to simply pass the height of each page to the script since it looks like that could be known. Is it known though? Are there circumstances, due to optional information being submitted, required, where the page lengths might vary?
There are some other things that trouble me about this set up. As I said before, no iframe at all in Opera, that means no content, no way to order or to pay. In IE explorer (current version, this may change with v7 about to be released), the text sizes can be specified with certainty (although they have not been on the payment page) but, not so in FF, there and quite possibly in IE7 you can change font size no matter what the designer has done, this would result if different sized pages. As it is now, even in IE6 you can change the font size.
The best method would probably be just to have these as normal pages that the client can move along through like any other normally linked pages.
