Wouldn't the src file in the <iframe> be its own separate document? If so you
can try accessing the http://www.example.com/script1.php address directly and
see if it loads correctly. Like you mentioned though it's only outputting an
<img> tag so it's missing the other HTML components. If you just need to
dynamically display a graphic you can do that with PHP without using iframes.
