Dear Treehouse,
I have a website I made, and I want to put in in an iFrame on another website, but I am getting this error. Is there anyway I can fix it?

"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> or <object> . Sites can use this to avoid clickjacking attacks, by ensuring that their content is not embedded into other sites."
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/X-Frame-Options
On a Ruby on Rails project you can create an after_filter in application_controller to do that globally:
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base protect_from_forgery
after_filter :set_header_for_iframe
private def set_header_for_iframe response.headers.delete "X-Frame-Options" end end
In other programming frameworks I'm not so sure what's the way to go. Cheers!
