Wordpress iframe in VSD - text...
Have an interesting problem. I have a site made in VSD. On one page in VSD I am trying to incorporate a small iframe that shows part of a separate Wordpress page. The iframe on VSD renders the Wordpress page just fine. That is not a problem. However, the interesting thing I noticed is that when the Wordpress iframe is embedded on the VSD page, I now lose all my original text! lol
The pictures, and other embedded objects etc. on my VSD page still are visible. But for some reason any text i have on the VSD page is not visible anymore. When I look at it on the preview browser, I click on View Source and look at the source page - and the funny thing is, all the text words are still indeed in the source code, but for some reason it appears that the browser is not rendering or displaying any of the text words. I have even tried changing the text to the "Advanced Text" feature in VSD etc. but the browsers still do not display any of my text words as long as the Wordpress iframe is still embedded in the page. As soon as I remove the Wordpress iframe and preview the page again, the text reappears again. I have tested in all the browsers, Firefox, IE, Chrome etc. but all the same results.
Since I am not really a techie person per se, I was wondering if there was someone out there who could tell me probably what the cause that might be, and how to fix it. I am sure the cause of this sort of thing is probably "obvious" to most people, but as of this time I just can not figure it out. So if anyone had the answer, any help would be appreciative. Thanks!!!

Can you share a link?

I can't hear what I'm looking at.

Sounds like it could be a missing closing tag...
</iframe> or </div>...?
Check the code in your HTML box and make sure the iframe (and any <div>s) have a closing tag.

Thanks paintbrush. Yes, the iframe had a closing tag. But your suggestion got me thinking so I did a little research, and discovered that some of the style attributes that I had in my iframe html code are no longer supported by the more current browsers, and I removed those attributes and now my text appears correctly on the browsers now. Thank you so much!
Thanks also Eric for trying to help. I always learn so much from your posts!
