An iframe's vertical scrollbar does not work when the target is a SharePoint page

Background

I have a basic HTML page with an iframe that points to a page with a SilverLight object on it. When the Silverlight object extends past the predefined height, the vertical scroll bar is displayed but in an inactive state. Below is my HTML and screen shots of the iframe.

Question

Is it possible to have a vertical scroll bar in an iframe when the target page contains a Silverlight object?

Code

<html>
<body>
    <form>
        <div>
            <IFRAME height="300" width="1000" name="MyFrame" scrolling="yes"
                    src="http://mycompany.com/mysilverlightpage.aspx">
            </IFRAME>
        </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Screen Shots

Initial loading of Silverlight object.

Completed loading of Silverlight object.

This issue had nothing to do with Silverlight but with the SharePoint masterpage hosting the web part that hosted the Silverlight object. To allow the vertical scroll in this case the following changes need to be made to the masterpage. I created a custom masterpage based off for my business needs so I didn't have to worry about these mods wrecking the rest of my environment.

Remove scroll="no" from the body tag

Remove the two divs surrounding the "PlaceHolderMain" ContentPlaceHolder

<div ID="s4-workspace" class="s4-nosetwidth">
   <div ID="s4-bodyContainer">
      <asp:ContentPlaceHolder id="PlaceHolderMain" runat="server"/>
   </div>
</div>
