IFrame Request Canceled

This example loads the url in the iframe . However, when I change the url to something like http://www.yahoo.com , the iframe does not load antyhing

The following is an example.

On the Network tab of the Chrome Developer Tools, I see that the request for Yahoo has been canceled. In FF, it does not give any errors, it simply does not return any content. IE9 gives a message that it cannot display this content.

enter image description here

This happens in Chrome, FF, and IE9 (I have not tested previous versions of IE).

This is because Yahoo itself is in the way.

It has been noted here: fooobar.com/questions/1424353 / ...

To verify this, try installing a http://www.google.com/ source that will not work, but then try http://www.bbc.co.uk/ and it will work.

Perhaps it works as described here: fooobar.com/questions/92319 / ... using X-FRAME-OPTIONS

If the site hosting the web page enforces a secure HTTPS , some browsers (to check for Chrome) will require that all network resources use HTTPS .

Basically, if your site forces HTTPS , try setting src="https://yahoo.com"

This will not solve the OP answer directly due to the fact that this is a limitation of Yahoo itself, but other people viewing this page may run into this problem as a result of this (I was).
