Hi,
this issue has plagued me for a month now I've sought assistance from various source and up til now no one has been able to resolve the issue. I've also looked extensively in the RT forums still no go!
I'm trying to load an external site through the wrapper module, however the external site is larger than the frame so it shows a scroll bar at the bottom which I do not want purely on aesthetic grounds.
Is there then a method of shrinking the size the external site when it appears on my site? Someone else suggested style=zoom but this does not work!
Best Regards and thanks in advance,

Yes have done that already it is an entirely blank page except for top and bottom modules and menu's. I have assigned ALL available space to the wrapped content!

Hi Lee,
You cannot manipulate how the external site appears in an iframe.

If it's important enough, widen your template

Sounds good how do I do that, a link will suffice if you no of its location, if not many thanks, always the simplest solutions, but normally always dismissed, I didn't even think of it, great answer.

Hi Lee,
As both Aman and GollumX suggest, disabling the modules in either the left or right columns are best. To do this, go to Extension > Module manager > and disable the modules on assigned to that page (your wrapper page) only.
You will have to open each module and deselect the wrapper page. -

Lee, every template is different, so there is no one way to do this. In some templates it might be as easy as changing a single value, in others it might be a PITA to do.
I suggest going to the subforum (here on RT) of the template you are using and asking there. - Say no to Internet Explorer 6.

Yes to that... and post a link to your site. Difficult to help with what we cannot see.
