Thanks for taking the time to respond, BOP.

All I know is the problem seems to stem from something vB's default directives are controlling. This seems so because I can alter the replacement code parameters in a multitude of ways but the footer bar & tab across the content area issue persists no matter what changes I make. I should also note that it's the 'height' aspect that's compressed and frozen when a sheet is viewed on a narrow, mobile screen. That results in the footer bar and the sheet tab perpetually obstructing the sheet's content. They remain there even when using Google's own generated embedment code, and even with the widget directive set to false (which should toggle off the sheet tab that appears on the overlapping footer bar). Also, when the mobile style is viewed on a larger screen, all aspects become rendered correctly (i.e., the footer bar, the sheet tab, etc. are each in place). So it seems vB is restricting the height of the display area for embedded documents on the mobile style. As such, if I could learn how to get my vB4 to allow mobile style height flexibility I'm guessing it would fix the problem. Someone smarter then I would have to determine how that might be done, though.

Edit: Just some further information. The scope of this problem is somewhat different from my initial assumption. I've tested the issue on two Samsung mobile devices. As it turns out, when in vB full desktop version mode the iframed sheets display in the identically compressed and distorted state that I'm seeing in vB mobile mode. Oh, and the issue is browser independent as well... at least among the three mobile browser versions I have tested (i.e., Google Chrome, Firefox, and the browser that comes pre-loaded on Samsung devices). So to summarize, the iframed Google sheets simply will not render properly on these mobile devices - through iframes on vBulletin forum sites at least. But they render amazingly well with full synch'ing/linking control and visibility on my desktop and laptop computers. They even present quite well in vB mobile mode on those computers. Therefore, the screen dimensions on my phone are obviously not the issue. I can't imagine what it would take to get this working on these phones.

Edit2: I've been able to get it to display on my mobile device without the obstructive sheet tab bar blocking the sheet's content on the phones. However, sheet cells are not editable under the required configuration. It is thus exclusive to displaying the sheet's data. So for editing the sheets, I've employed a workaround by adding another bbcode item that can quickly and easily be toggled and saved through a post edit, then switched back to the frozen data display mode using the original bbcode tags, allowing the data to again be seen on mobile devices. I can also add some buttons to the editor, making it even a bit more convenient.
