openpopup - refused to connect.

[DeVille70]

I have defined a block to openpopup with a url to a public wet site. The pop up window opens, but only show "refused to connect". This is indepedant from the url, I even tried the simple https://www.vg.no/ but same output.

Anyone who can help?

Seems to a problem only with urls with https - as http works fine.

Some sites do not allow to present the content in a iframe, like vg.no
(by setting the X-Frame-Options http header)

By adding forcerefresh:2 as block parameter, the content is loaded via the Dashticz CORS proxy that strips out the X-frame-option as well, so you see some content, although most internal links and images will not be present.

There is no easy workaround as far as I know.

What I could is add the option to open the popup window in a separate window. Would that be useful?

Thanks.

forcerefresh:2 works as you said, but also has the limitations that you indicated, so it does not really do the trick.

A separate window would be fine. Grateful if you could give me a pointer on how to do that.

Alternatively, can the 'buttons' defintion be used in any useful way to overcome this?

Thanks again for your support.

For 'url' parameters the 'newwindow' parameter is used to determine whether the url will be opened in a new window. as a new tab or as an popup frame. The same mechanism could be used for openpopup(OnOff). Currently openpopupOnOff will always open a popup frame.

I want to keep 'autoclose' functionality. I'll do some tests.

newwindow 0 or 1 works as intended, but both have undesired side effects that i had not considered. Since I use WallPanel for a clean interface, I have no button for back or any option to close current window.

Any ideas much appreciated.

When it's not allowed to show the url in a frame, then the options are limited.

I can add autoclose support for new windows.

And with Fully Kiosk you could add a 'back' button at the top, which will close the new window.

An option to autoclose new windows would be great, thanks.
