permission denied error when specifying iframe source

Madhu Pusarla

I am trying to make a widget generic in the Static Content JavaScript. The widget renders an iframe and sets the source to an HTML page in the JavaScript module. I am getting permission denied errors. I understand that it is cross domain problem. Just curious if anybody ran into similar issue in the Cobalt environment. We don't want to setup a proxy service as that will require all the consumers of the widget to have the proxy configured.

You might be able to get around it by setting the contents of the iframe directly from JavaScript. Something like this:


document.getElementById("foo").contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML = "foo"
