Hello,

I am running version 2.53 of cmsBuilder and for some reason the inline iframe Link Menu does not work. I have created a menu with a URL link and it works fine when I select to open the link in the "same window" or in a "new window or tab".

However it just displays a blank white page when I choose "inline iframe".

Would someone kindly suggest how I might be able to fix this?

Thank you,

Greg

Hi Greg,

Some sites are coded to prevent being included in iframes. Example would be gmail.com. If you are getting a blank white page in the inframe this is probably what is happening.

Test it out with a site you know doesn't have iframe breaking code and it should work correctly.

Let me know if this works.

Thanks!

Hi Damon,

Many thanks for your response.

I have tried google.com and a blank white page is just displayed. Should the Google home page display correct in the iframe?

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Greg

Hi again,

No, unfortunately I don't think any Google sites/pages will work in an iframe.

Here is an example of a city site that will appear in an iframe:
