Does Map Mashup v7 beta work with iframe deployment?

[robelliott]

Due to the platform I work on, Wikidot, datapages cannot be deployed using the default embedded option but are deployed using iframes which works very well. However I have hit a problem trying to get the map mashup v7 beta to work with iframe deployment. Does anyone know if this can be done or whether it only works with the embedded option?

Edit: - don't worry, I've got the embedded option to work and now the map mashup works. It was a Wikidot problem: the site needs to be public, not private.

As far as I know there should be a way to pass parameters between DataPage and map and when you have your DataPage in an iframe this communication is not possible. Why are you trying to have your report in an iframe? Have you tried to have both map and report in an iframe? This way it should work fine.

"Why are you trying to have your report in an iframe?"

Only because on a private Wikidot site (i.e only viewable with the appropriate username and password) the embedded option doesn't work but the iframe option does . As a result with the iframe map markers don't display but they do as soon as the site is made public. This is a Wikidot issue rather than a Caspio one I suspect and I'll investigate further (I provide first line support for Wikidot so should really know what the problem is!). For now it's not a problem as the site I am working on is public and so the embedded code works fine and I don't need to use iframes. I think this new map mashup tool is brilliant.

Yes it is really amazing!!! One more thing you might want to try is to have your map and DataPage deployed in a plain web page and use that page URL as the iframe source you have in your main web page source code. Let me know if it works!!!
