While iframes are part of HTML5, there are several security warnings in
the W3C recommendation.
Kelly,
Most of the warnings appear to be related to disabling the <iframe>'s
sandbox. Others are related to malicious content which might be referenced
from say hidden <iframe>s. I don't see a problem with using them to
reference content on a trusted site.
Hopefully own's own site is trusted; though that may depend on whether
someone creates or downloads or stores trojan-horse type spoofs hiding
malicious code.
Malicious code is not really an <iframe> issue, however. In fact, an
<iframe>'s sandbox may actually protect against it, as indicated in the
blog which you referenced.
I use <iframe>s as a simple solution for "responsiveness"; just refresh
<iframe> content rather than a whole page. And that doesn't preclude one
from just refreshing part of an <iframe> page asynchronously.
I like that the size of an <iframe> can be fluid; adjusting automatically
to screen size. I just treat them as one tool in the box.
