here is the JS code that you could use to adjust the inline page hight …

———————————————————————————

window.onload=adjustHeight;

function adjustHeight(){
var iframeId = getIframeID();
var if1 = parent.document.getElementById(iframeId);
var ca = document.getElementById(“{!$Component.caID}”);
if1.height = ca.offsetHeight;
}

function getIframeID(el){
var myTop = top;
var myTitle = ‘YOUR_PAGE_NAME_HERE’;
var iFs = top.document.getElementsByTagName(‘iframe’);
var x, i = iFs.length;

You can try it out and let me know your thoughts, it's free https://sites.secure.force.com/appexchange/listingDetail?listingId=a0N30000004cEEyEAM# It was a bit complex to get javascript and DOM sizing to work with XSS (Cross-Site Scripting), which is considered browser security feature. We used EasyXDM.net library that includes a number of protocols to ensure browser support. IE8, Firefox, Chrome and Safari have been tested to work. Jeff, I could use this chance to thank you for the information you've provided on your blog, a couple of your entries saved hours of troubleshooting in the past, thanks! :) Dmitri Hi Jeff, Brent,

I have created a dispatcher class in apex. The apex class needs to redirect the user to either a full-access account layout page or a limited-access account layout page, depending on whether or not the owner of the account is the currently logged in user. Therefore, I need to access a page layout from apex code (or embed an account page layout in a VisualForce page). Any ideas on how to do the inverse of what you have posted here?

Unfortunately I don't have the code. You may want to drop @wesnolte a line and see if he can help. @Brent, it’s a clumsy solution but you can adjust the size with Javascript and the DOM.

You'll probably have to go to an entire visualforce page. @Archana, I don’t think this is possible. You’ll probably have to go to an entire visualforce page.

Supposing I have a VF in my opty detail page, in which I have some opty fields. When I click on Edit button, in the opty detail page, this VF section is not shown. How can I make that available? Thanks, Hi,
