Always turning off horizontal scrolling in an iframe

Hello, Is there any way to guarantee that the horizontal scrollbars in
an iframe are always turned off but the vertical scrollbars appear when
needed? Ideally, I'm looking for a solution on IE6+ and Netscape 7+,
but am open to any single-browser solutions.

Thanks, - Dave

How do you expect for the user to see your content when it's wider than
the viewport if you do that?

Make sure your content is never as wide as the iframe.
