So i have this iFrame with the class .transparentbg:

.transparantbg{
    background-color: transparent;
}

This works fine in Chrome, but not in IE...

Help please?

Greetings

Answer

Add allowTransparency="true" to your iframe

<IFRAME ID="Frame1" SRC="whatever.htm" allowTransparency="true">

For whatever.htm add background:transparent to its body tag.

<body style="background:transparent">
