Hello Canvas Developers,
Re: x-frame_blocks
I was wondering if anyone still uses iFrames these days and has found a suitable fix for x-frame blocks? An example is shown below where the iFrame was embedded wihin a page added to a module. This worked until the last few week or so. It's now broken in the latest versions of Firefox and Chrome.
Ok I realise these blocks are designed to combat 'clickjacking', but the standard solution offered by browsers seems to be extension tools. I'm not sure that this would work if the server is cloud based and not locally hosted.
I realise now why the Canvas solution for handling external web urls is to add an external url within a module. That opens up to a plainer than plain new tab with an even plainer button for the user to click and open the web page in a new window. Sure it works but it's so unattractive, so clunky.
Has anyone found a more attractive solution?
Thanks in advance
David
