forcing an iframe to scrolldown as it gets filled with content

Hello

I have an iframe which is embedded inside a page.
I would like the iframe to automatically scroll down as more content arrives from the server.
Is this possible?

I am a bit confused because when the iframe is filled with content from the server, its page hasn't been loaded yet. This is because the content of the iframe is output using PHP's echo command.
By the time I get to doing some JavaScript, the page has already been loaded, and all the content has been displayed in the iframe already.

I would like the scrolling to take affect in runtime, as more and more content is being pushed into the iframe.

thanks in advance

Well I haven't seen this done and I don't see why you would want too. There are JavaScripts though that auto-matically scroll down, but as the page loads I don't think that you can do with JavaScript.

Yes, I guess this is impossible...
