To include CSS and JavaScript in an iframe, you can add the necessary code directly inside the HTML document that is being loaded into the iframe. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Include CSS in the iframe:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css">
</head>
<body>
  <iframe src="page-to-load.html"></iframe>
</body>
</html>


In the example above, the CSS file "styles.css" will be applied to the content loaded inside the iframe.

  1. Include JavaScript in the iframe:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <script src="script.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
  <iframe src="page-to-load.html"></iframe>
</body>
</html>


In this example, the JavaScript file "script.js" will be executed within the content of the iframe.


It's important to note that the CSS and JavaScript files must be accessible and hosted on the same domain as the main HTML page containing the iframe to avoid security issues related to cross-origin requests.


Alternatively, you can also include inline CSS and JavaScript directly within the HTML content that is loaded inside the iframe:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
12
13
14
15
<iframe>
  <html>
    <head>
      <style>
        /* Your CSS styles here */
      </style>
      <script>
        // Your JavaScript code here
      </script>
    </head>
    <body>
      <!-- Content goes here -->
    </body>
  </html>
</iframe>


By including CSS and JavaScript directly inside the HTML content of the iframe, you can customize the styling and behavior of the content independently from the parent document.
