Form Text Box to URL

[ccsfdave]

Greetings,

I would like to create a text input in which I can enter a URL and then click submit then the panel below would display an internet webpage.

To better explain, I would enter ak.imgfarm.com then click submit

and the panel below would display the webpage:

http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=**ak.imgfarm.com**

The approach works fine, but what's happening is that that particular site doesn't allow "cross-origin-framing".

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/HTTP/X-Frame-Options

If you dig around and turn on the console, look you'll see this little error coming out in your browser's console.

Load denied by X-Frame-Options: http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=google.com does not permit cross-origin framing.

If i put one of my own domains that doesnt do any magic with X-Frame-Options, then somesoni2's XML works fine.

Try the following: If you get any error like "The content cannot be displayed in a frame", try adding the URL in your trusted sites.

<view autoCancelInterval="90" isVisible="true" onunloadCancelJobs="true" template="dashboard.html" stylesheet="application.css">

    <module name="AppBar" layoutPanel="appHeader" />

Yup, now I see it is Google's safebrowsing site that doesn't work but the above XML works like a charm. I added some sizing to the iFrame tag but the main functionality is there. Thanks @somesoni2 & @sideview

Unfortunately this doesn't work. I get a text submission box on the left with a submit button. On the right I show an empty "text area" like box. What I would like to show is the webpage

[somesoni2]

See the answer below. Its shows the ways to show a webpage in the panel. Further, you can save the value of the textbox in a variable and dynamically assign in the IFrameInclude module property (if using Core SPlunk xml) or iframe tag of Sideview HTML module.
