How to Use an iFrame in a Facebook Fan Page
Facebook offers website owners the ability to use "social plugins" to encourage visitors to become fans of their site's Facebook page. Generate an "iFrame" code and insert a Facebook "Like" box into your Web page to encourage users to "Like" your Facebook fan page, which subscribes them to updates you send out via the page.
