Abstract

A user interface may be utilized to allow a user to control display properties of online ad content on a hosting webpage (e.g., hosting ads from one domain on a webpage from a different domain). This may be accomplished by creating a cross-domain frame in the hosting webpage, which can contain the ad content. An instantiation of a user interface may be created on the hosting webpage that has an ability to control display properties of the cross-domain frame, thereby controlling display properties of the ad content in the cross-domain frame. Further, a task manager may be utilized as part of the user interface to facilitate a host of the hosting webpage to manage ad content.
