Iframe does not restrict destination URL

Help.

Any suggestions it seems that not all 3rd party website are supported with the Iframe module. The reason I ask is detailed below. When I use www.tuliwood.smugmug.com as a URL to imbed in your Iframe module it refuses to be restricted to the height and width I config in the module.

Thanks in advance

Re: Iframe does not restrict destination URL

I can't access that site from my current location, but it sounds like this is a problem with the way that site is setup. Are there any scripts running that would prevent it? That's my only guess. Since I can't hit it from here, I can't test anything out. Sorry I can't be of more help, right now.

Re: Iframe does not restrict destination URL

First off, I think you need to have http:// on there. I can't remember if it is prepended by default, but I don't think it is. It seems to work, which surprises me, but humor me in that

Second, my proxy blocks that site, so I can't check it from here. The IFrame serves up my proxy server's denial page correctly, tho, which tells me that this is most likely a script issue on the target site.

I know I probably haven't been of much help, but hopefully someone who isn't behind such a strict proxy can try it out or I can try it when I'm at home later.
