Stop iframes from loading using js

Hi there,

I’d like to stop all of the iframes loading on a page and replace them with another element depending on whether flash is installed using swfobject.

Can I just use window.frames.stop(); ?

Is this cross-browser?

I would also like to know whether iframes are loaded after or during the DOM loading of the current page as I’d like to know if I can just stop them inside my jQuery Dom Ready function without any unnecessary overheads.

thanks in advance
