I think this is more of a comment than a request for help. I can effectively embed my php app in my very well developed html website using the Iframe.......
But I just don't like it. The basic Iframe really doesn't perform well and the height won't properly resize dynamically within the page. There has got to be a more elegant solution. I found a couple using jquery and a jquery iframe auto height plugin that will dynamically resize the iframe as you go from page to page but even that seems a bit extreme. Does anyone have any better ideas?

UPDATE:

I went ahead and installed the jquery auto height plugin just to give it a go...
Awesome! It's worth the extra effort. I now have a seamless, auto height adjusting iframe embed that works perfectly. To the untrained eye, you would never know it's embedded. I don't know the rules to posting outside links here so i will just tell you to 'google jquery.auto-height.plugin'

I would be very interested to see how it works in your application. If you can post a live URL of your app feel free to do that.
