How can I cleanly resize an iFrame with dragging functionality?

I have an iFrame and I want the user to be able to grab one side of it and drag it to resize it. I don't want it to resize realtime, but rather use an indicator line and when the user releases, it'll resize.

I'm using jQuery.

Any help?

As of 2020 you can simply add the CSS property resize: both or resize: vertical to the iframe element.

That seems to do the trick with an iFrame inside a DIV

jQuery Resizable with an indicator as to the eventual dimensions as per your request. See Russ C's comment and link to a better solution

Iirc, the classical method is to put the IFrame inside of a div and make that div re-sizable; also make the iFrame's width and height at 100%.

If you're using JQuery though, can you not use jQuery.load('uri') instead of an iFrame ? I believe it's preferable in many situations.
