Re: alternative to <iframe>

Rob

so how do you handle lets say jquery in different running i different
version
from the main page and the 'imported' page in a div?

How do you handle javascript that access the DOM by ID if the imported
page in the div uses the same ID's as the main page?

I agree with Nathan.

Simply get the contents of the page and display in a DIV or any other
suitable control of your choosing.

I do it every day with out a problem. Well, sometimes I have to use
CURL for those sites that attempt to prevent crawling. If you need code to
make your server request to look like it is a browser, just let me know.

Happy Coding,
Rob

Mike,

Last I checked, "frame-busting hacks" like x-frames were not part of PCI.
You probably have good grounds for ignoring your latest "PCI scan", in
that
regard.

iframes provide useful functionality. clickJacking is a problem with
malicious sites. Does anyone have cause to view your web applications as
being malicious?

However, if you really do want to provide content from multiple sites
without using iframes, the idea of using GETURI (or HTTPAPI) to retrieve
"content" from "foreign" sites and passing it through to your users seems
like the best alternative. It will require some redesign and rework of any
applications that currently use iframes.
