Cart pages won't show in a frame page

[hp09]

We have several domains forwarded with masking going to pages in our Zencart. GoDaddy put the page in a frame so the domain always show in the URL bar and search engines index it. We have been using this for years, but since updating to ZC 1.55, the pages no longer show in the frame. We see just a white page. Does ZC now prevent this? Or is there a setting to allow it?

Thanks for any help.

Using frames for ecommerce sites is generally (IMO "always") a bad idea. In my experience there's no good reason for needing to host a site in a frame.

The reason why it's broken now for you in v155 is because the following was added to the html_header.php template file ... specifically to prevent click-jacking where people commit fraud by tricking your site using frames.

// Prevent clickjacking risks by setting X-Frame-Options:SAMEORIGIN
header('X-Frame-Options:SAMEORIGIN');

Payment Gateways (Authorisenet, Sagepay, Paypal...) do not like frames for the reasons indicated by Dr Byte. So the use of frames is (in strict PCI terms, not compliant).

You should try using sub-domains instead.

That GoDaddy put the frame in place suggests what most of us know about them - general incompetence.
