Re: how to size Frame so no scrollbars?

An easy solution would be to use a 3rd party like SmartGWT. All their
widgets have a method called setAutoHeight() which will do exactly
what you want.

However, I haven't tried this, but give it a shot. This might have to
go in an class that extends Frame.

link.addClickListener(new ClickListener() {
public void onClick(ClickEvent event) {
changeContentsOfFrame();
newPageInFrame(frame.getElement());
}

});

native void newPageInFrame(Element frame) /*-{
//Remember, JavascriptObject, Element, and the
//primitives are directly accessible in JSNI code.
//Thus frame here should be -the-frame.

var FramePageHeight = framePage.scrollHeight + 10;
/* framePage is the ID of the framed page's BODY
* tag. The added 10 pixels prevent an unnecessary
* scrollbar. */

frame.style.height=FramePageHeight;
}-*/;
