SEO Training - IFrames intro and explanation

Tonight I have to admit I had never used IFrames before, or even heard of them until they were brought up in an online conversation.. Basically I will share with you what I found while researching this topic:

What is an IFrame?
According to Wikipedia, it is “an HTML element which makes it possible to embed another HTML document inside the main document. The size of the IFrame is specified in the surrounding HTML page, so that the surrounding page can already be presented in the browser while the IFrame is still being loaded. The IFrame behaves much like an inline image and the user can scroll it out of view. On the other hand, the IFrame can contain its own scroll bar, independent of the surrounding page’s scroll bar.”

This is why I needed it —> While regular frames are typically used to logically subdivide the content of one website, IFrames are more commonly used to insert content (for instance an advertisement) from another website into the current page

When would I use IFrames?
I was having trouble with Adsense not showing because there were no relevant ads on the site I was using and all I was seeing was psa’s (public service announcements).

How do I implement IFrames?
Since I have very little programming knowledge, this is how it was explained:
“On another site of yours make a html file named ads.html then put . Below that put the adsense code. Then in each post put . You can get rid of the scrolling by putting noscrolling in the tag.”
