Description Pier Bover 2017-12-25 11:27:02 PST 
As instructed by @smfr from the team I'm creating this feature request to be able to disable "frame flattening".

For some reason it's not possible to set the height of an iframe unless some ugly hacks are applied which makes Safari for iOS and web views behave in a non standard way.

Here is a hacky solution I came up with: https://github.com/PierBover/ios-iframe-fix

Thanks for the report.

After this commit, which removed 'frame flattening' code:

https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/commit/37224f042c178a094cc2287dee595345bc89f687

Is this bug applicable anymore?
