      iFrame embed is not compatible with 360MatchPro:

      If you aren't familiar with iFrames, they function as a browser window within a browser window.  

      Standard Embed Plugin (supported):

      1. Take on CSS properties of the page it is embedded on, allowing for further customization and integration with the website.

      2. Automatically expands to the full width and height of wherever the few lines of code are added.

      3. Uses JavaScript. Some Content Management Systems may require additional plugins to enable JavaScript support.

      4. Allows for critical tracking and reporting to be sent to your 360MatchPro account.

      iFrames (not supported):

      1. Can be easier to implement than the standard embed option.

      2. Does not inherit the styling of your webpage.

      3. Not compatible with the 360MatchPro tracking.
