iFrame / white label variant
If you want to display the Interhome properties within the context of your own website you can do so by adding a frame to your website in which the Interhome site will be displayed.
By adding the parameter "iniframe" to the Interhome URL, the Interhome navigation and header will be disabled which makes it easier to fit the content within the frame being displayed on your website.
Have a look at the iFrame demo page to see an example and the according HTML code to use.
