Specifications

Browser compatibility

[1] Previously, the type of sandbox was a DOMString instead of a DOMSettableTokenList. This has been fixed with Gecko 29.0 (Firefox 29 / Thunderbird 29 / SeaMonkey 2.26)) (バグ 845067). Other browsers may still implement the property as DOMString since it was a late change in the specification.

Firefox OS notes

Firefox OS extend the HTMLIFrameElement interface to support browser iframes. Those extra methods are made for privileged applications which want to implement a browser like application for Firefox OS devices. Not that in that context, the HTMLIFrameElement also inherit methods from the EventTarget interface. To learn how to implement such applications, see the Using the Browser API article.
