EmbeddedHTML [CloudObject […]]

Details and Options
- The string given to EmbeddedHTML can be HTML for a full HTML page, given in the form <html> ... </html>, or can be a sequence of pure HTML tags of the kind found in the body of an HTML page.
- Using JavaScript or CSS requires giving the HTML for a full HTML page.
- EmbeddedHTML is fully supported in the Wolfram Cloud System and can appear at any level in an expression. On desktop systems, it may be supported only as a separate browser window.
- In the Wolfram Cloud System, EmbeddedHTML is rendered in an iframe and is robust with respect to malformed and malicious HTML.
- The following option can be used:
-
- With ImageSize->Automatic , the web frame will be large enough space to render the HTML, so long as this does not make it larger than the notebook in which it appears.
- With "Title"->Automatic , the button's title will be a shortened version of the literal HTML string or the embedded URL.
- In EmbeddedHTML [URL […]], if a webpage's headers forbid embedding, a link is returned that opens the webpage in a separate browser window.
Examples
open all close allBasic Examples (1)
Deploy a cloud notebook with embedded HTML:
On desktop systems, a button that opens the specified HTML in a separate browser window is shown:
Scope (1)
Embed explicit HTML content:
Embed a webpage:
Deploy a form as a cloud object and embed it in a cloud notebook:
Options (4)
ImageSize (1)
Specify the size of the embedded HTML:
"CompletePage" (1)
Specify a complete HTML page including its HTML head:
Note that automatic size detection does not work with "CompletePage"->True , so the embedding will use the full available size of the notebook.
"Title" (1)
Specify the caption of the button opening the HTML page:
"Verify" (1)
Disable verification that a website allows embedding, which might result in an iframe that fails to display:
Verify if a page can be embedded and display a button if embedding is not permitted:
Possible Issues (2)
A webpage's headers might forbid embedding, so it will be shown as a button that opens the webpage in a separate browser tab, even in a cloud notebook:
JavaScript code running in the embedded HTML cannot access the outer window due to sandboxing. Any such attempt will result in a browser console error:

Use HTML formatting inside a deployed expression:
