hthunt033 Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 I am new to Handviewer. I have tried using the HTML call <iframe src="http://www.bridgebase.com/tools/handviewer.html" height="400" width="500"></iframe> many different ways and all I ever get is a blank window of the height and width specified. <iframe> works find for my for virtually any other web sight I call up, which leads me to suspect that something has changed in the Handviewer side. Is anyone else having a similar problem? Tom Hunt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige1 Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 Works for me. Try Cut this code-segment and paste it into a file, using a text-editor.Save the text as "quadrille.htm".Click on the file-name in file-explorer.Your browser should display the hands in a new window. <html> <head> <title>Quadrille</title> </head> <body> <h1>Quadrille -- 4-trick squeeze -- by Nigel Guthrie </h1> <iframe width="650" height="500" src="https://www.bridgebase.com/tools/handviewer.html? &n=SA2HA7DA7CAK65432 &s=SHK65432DK65432CQ &e=HQJT9DQJT9DCJT987 &d=s &a=6NPPP &p=SK">Hand </iframe> </body> </html> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulg Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 Note that there is a very subtle difference between nige1's example and the handviewer documentation, namely that nige1 uses the secure http (https) rather than the default http for the src in the iframe, i.e, src=https:// and not src=http:// I have to do the same for my Google Blogger website now that I've forced the use of https when accessing the blog (as it does not like insecure content on a secure site). This may be your issue too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 You can also write just //www.bridgebase.com/handview.html?parameters, leaving out http: or https:, and it will automatically use the same protocol as the site you're embedding the HV in.

(since I, and I suspect many others, just go there each time to pick up the template) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
