onMousedown and drag, resize Iframe simultaneously

This code works well for dragging and resizing a div. I have an iframe inside of a div and I'm having trouble getting it to work..

There's a couple DIVs defined inside there.. I added the moveable = true to mine and I get 0 for my element when I click on my iframe.

<html>

<style>
DIV {cursor: hand}
</style>

<body style="font-family: verdana">
<H2>Simple Drag and Resize Example</h2>
<h4>Use alt-click to multi-select</h4>

<input type=button value="Moving, click to resize"
onclick="toggleMoveResize(this); return false">

<div moveable=true style="position: absolute;
top: 150px; left: 100px;
width: 100px; height: 100px;
background-color: red;
border: solid 2px black">
Click and drag me
</div>

<div moveable=true style="position: absolute;
top: 150px; left: 250px;
width: 100px; height: 100px;
background-color: blue;
border: solid 2px black">
Click and drag me
</div>

<script language="JavaScript">
var activeElements = new Array();
var activeElementCount = 0;

var lTop, lLeft;
var doMove = true;
var doResize = false;

function toggleMoveResize(e) {
if (doMove) {
doMove = false;
doResize = true;
e.value = "Resizing, Click to Move";
} else {
doMove = true;
doResize = false;
e.value = "Moving, Click to Resize";
}
}

function mousedown() {
var mp;

mp = findMoveable(window.event.srcElement);

if (!window.event.altKey) {
for (i=0; i<activeElementCount; i++) {
if (activeElements[i] != mp) {
activeElements[i].style.borderWidth = "2px";
}
}
if (mp) {
activeElements[0] = mp;
activeElementCount = 1;
mp.style.borderWidth = "4px";
} else {
activeElementCount = 0;
}
} else {
if (mp) {
if (mp.style.borderWidth != "4px") {
activeElements[activeElementCount] = mp;
activeElementCount++;
mp.style.borderWidth = "4px";
}
}
}

window.status = activeElementCount;

lLeft = window.event.x;
lTop = window.event.y;
}

document.onmousedown = mousedown;

function mousemove() {
var i, dLeft, dTop;

if (window.event.button == 1) {

sx = window.event.x;
sy = window.event.y;

dLeft = sx - lLeft;
dTop = sy - lTop;

for (i=0; i<activeElementCount; i++) {
if (doMove)
moveElement(activeElements[i], dLeft, dTop);
if (doResize)
resizeElement(activeElements[i], dLeft, dTop);
}

lLeft = sx;
lTop = sy;

return false;
}

}

function moveElement(mp, dLeft, dTop) {
var e
e = mp;
e.style.posTop += dTop;
e.style.posLeft += dLeft;
}

function resizeElement(mp, dLeft, dTop) {
var e;
e = mp;
e.style.posHeight += dTop;
e.style.posWidth += dLeft;
}

function findMoveable(e) {
if (e.moveable == 'true')
return e;

if (e.tagName == "BODY")
return null;

return findMoveable(e.parentElement);
}

function findDefinedMoveable(e) {
if ((e.moveable == 'true') || (e.moveable == 'false'))
return e;

if (e.tagName == "BODY")
return null;

return findDefinedMoveable(e.parentElement);
}

function rfalse() {
return false;
}

document.onmousemove = mousemove;
document.onselectstart = rfalse;

</script>

</body>

</html>

THE BELOW CODE IS WHAT I USED TO CREATE MY DIV AND IFRAME

function iframeOpen ( iframeUrl, iframeId ) {
      if(listBoxOpen){
       clearTable();
      }
parentSelected = true;
var iframe = document.createElement('iframe');
      var divId = "d"+iframeId;
document.body.appendChild(iframe);
iframe.outerHTML = "<div id='"+divId+"' moveable='true' STYLE='position:absolute; top:80; z-index:999; left:150;'> <iframe WIDTH=100% HEIGHT=100% src='"+iframeUrl+"' name='"+iframeId+"' id='"+iframeId+"' allowtransparency frameborder='0' scrolling='no' STYLE='position:absolute; display:block;'></iframe></div>";
if(!WindowOpened) {
WindowOpened = true;
TheFrameOpen = document.frames[iframeId];
TheWindowOpen = document.getElementById(iframeId);
WaitForClose ();
return TheWindowOpen;
}
return;
}

function iframeClose( iframeId ) {
      document.getElementById(iframeId).style.display='none';
      document.body.removeChild(parent.document.getElementsByName(iframeId)[0]);
}
