Frame redirection of a domain to ZC

**Carbonless** · 12 Aug 2021, 03:22 PM

using ZC 1.5.7c and I am trying to redirect another domain to a specific EZ page. The domain is showing a blank page when it loads, but if I tell it to load the specific frame, it then displays.

Heres the html code I am using on the index of automotiveforms.net to redirect. Any thoughts?

<html>
<head>
<title> Automotive Forms </title> 
</head>
<frameset>
<frame src="https://needtoorder.com/index.php?main_page=page&id=31">
</frameset>
<noframes>Your browser does not support frames. Please click <a href="https://needtoorder.com/index.php?main_page=page&id=31"> here </a> to be redirected automatically </noframes> 
</html>

Guessing a bit here, but perhaps try adding <!DOCTYPE html> to the code and replace frameset with iframe

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title> Automotive Forms </title> <!-- This text will be shown as name of the page -->
</head>
<iframe src="https://needtoorder.com/index.php?main_page=page&id=31"></iframe>
<noframes>Your browser does not support frames. Please click <a href="https://needtoorder.com/index.php?main_page=page&id=31"> here </a> to be redirected automatically </noframes> <!-- This tag is required for old browsers. If browser does not support frames, end user will see a message indicated between <noframes>...</noframes> -->
</html>

Out-of-the-box and on "relatively" recent browsers, Zen Cart effectively prevents such an action of a Zen Cart site at a different domain name to be displayed within the frame/iframe... Meaning, if the Zen Cart store is at needtoorder, but the site attempting to provide that iframe is *NOT* at needtoorder, then it will not work.

Why is this being attempted rather than performing a redirect?

The 2 businesses have merged… more of transition phase, but if possible, preferred method of rebranding.

abandoning this process.... going with a standard redirect

**barco57** · 16 Aug 2021, 03:47 AM

line 20 of the common/html_header.php has

Code:

header('X-Frame-Options:SAMEORIGIN');

The X-Frame-Options HTTP response header can be used to indicate whether or not a browser should be allowed to render a page in a <frame>, <iframe>, <embed> or <object>. Sites can use this to avoid click-jacking attacks, by ensuring that their content is not embedded into other sites.

If you need to maintain PCI compliance you need to have this. The days of easily showing content from one site on another by just showing it in an iframe are over. There are ways to do it that require making adjustement to content security policy where you list those domains that are allowed to show content from the main site.
