<iframe style="overflow-x:hidden;">

or

<style type="text/css">
iframe {overflow-x:hidden;}
</style>

the first option will effect only the selected iframe while the second will effect all.

the <style>...</style> tags go in between the <head>...</head> tags. You can add style="..." to your current iframe.
I hope this helps.
Peace,

Alternative to the original question:

If the contents fit the available space (horizontally, anyway), no horizontal scrollbar will appear. Disabling scrollbars when they actually are needed disables visitors to see all of the content and should therefore be avoided. Apart from that, overflow-x and overflow-y are no standard properties but MS proprietary.

:confused example (http://www.geocities.com/camel_booter/links.htm) Well this is the link that i am trying to do this to.
The iframe page is a post a link from bravenet and i can only edit the text color and bg image.
You might have already answered my question but it didnt work for me or i'm just a dumb ***...............

Me while working on my web site :) :thumbsup: :D :eek: :confused: :mad:example (http://www.geocities.com/camel_booter/links.htm)

the banner and the divider seem to be effecting the side scroll if you could resize them it would probably work but that is just my guess

I think you'll have to do some redesigning. When I came into the example, I saw your iframe...but it was so long lengthwise, I had no idea about the horiz scrollbar at the bottom and it just looked like a poorly designed site. :D

They're proposed for CSS3 - http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-ui/#overflow-x
