How to display a browser page (Dropbox) in a block

Permalink
Our organization has photo albums/groups hat we would like to display within a block on a page e.g.

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/mfirupjs1tkeohl/AABA_XBDFD8FE24vaNP5y32ra...

Is there a way to do this?

Thank you,

Todd

There are two ways you could do this: iframe or ajax.

Concrete has some addons for these. However, for sake of ease-of-use, I suggest an iframe.

Iframe:http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/iframe/...

Dynamic Iframe:http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/dynamic-iframe/...

Loading the page content via ajax could also be a solution, but this is more complex to do. You could try searching the marketplace for "ajax".

I must be doing something incorrectly or iFrame cannot link to Dropbox. I have the iFrame Block installed and using Page Source, this is the HTML code:

<iframe src="https://www.dropbox.com/sh/mfirupjs1tkeohl/AABA_XBDFD8FE24vaNP5y32ra" marginheight="" marginwidth="" align="center" scrolling="auto" frameborder="0" name="Convention 2014" width="800" height="800">
  your browser does not support iframes!
</iframe>


The link works; not the above code. Here is my test page:

Any suggestions?

Many thanks...

The problem appears to be that Dropbox is HTTPS. Is there any work-around?
