Creating an Iframe in CRM 2011 RRS feed

  • Question

  • I am trying to create an Iframe on the Contact form. As a test, I have been trying to have the Iframe look up to www.bing.com. However, all I get is "The Webpage Cannot be Found."

    To create the Iframe:

    1. On the form in the solution, I clicked IFrame in the Insert tab.

    2. I gave the Iframe a generic name: Iframe_test

    3. In the field URL, I entered: www.bing.com

    4. I kept all the check boxes as is.

    5. I also entered the following code to the Iframe event OnReadyStateComplete:

    {
    var AccountURL = crmForm.all.websiteurl.DataValue;
    if (AccountURL != null)
    {
    crmForm.all.IFRAME_WebSite.src = AccountURL;
    }
    }

     

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

  •  In the field URL, try enter: http://www.bing.com  (missed http:// in your example).

    This should work

  • Thanks! That did work.

     

    I just have one more question:

    • When I open up the form with the Iframe, a popup always appears that says - "Only secure content is displayed."
    • I have to then click Show Content for the Iframe to appear.

    How do I fix this?

  • Try adding that site to the trusted sites in Internet Explorer and see if that helps.

    The reason you get the warning is because you are mixing 2 different sites on the same page in CRM.  It's letting the user know that he is accessing a site outside CRM.
