If you are using the strict version of HTML 4.01, then iframes aren't even a part of HTML. i.e. iframes isn't defined as an element. There are valid alternative ways to update an image with a click. If one is using HTML 4.01 Transitional, then iframes are an option. A very buggy option depending what you want to do and what versions of IE must be supported. The one reason I can think of that could defend using iframes is if one has taken the step to use HTML 5, i its current state. Even then I don't think it's the best solution for updating an image with a click. iframes in HTML 5 are to be used when "Where embedded content is expected."
