Question

I am trying to add an iframe to my website. The problem is that our CMS automatically overrides the src address given ex: I set the absolute url (source address) to http://www.youtube.com/embed/RE6C1AoWy3M and when the page is rendered the src is modified as shown.

The base address is being added. This was set as we normaly upload images/files on our file system.
Any idea how can I override this, maybe embed some javascript function. I do not have access to .cs/ Asp.net pages.

Answer 1

This has finally worked. I am creating the iFrame as shown below not using the CMS drag/drop html objects and modify the src attribute.

var el = document.createElement("iframe");
el.setAttribute('id', 'ifrm');
// Here I am getting the object to append the iframe to
var elem = document.getElementById("td1");  
// Append iframe to this element.
elem.appendChild(el);
el.setAttribute('src', 'http://www.youtube.com/embed/RE6C1AoWy3M');
</script>

Although this solved my problem, I am open to new maybe better suggestions. I am willing to learn from other’s experience.
