iframe not working

I have used the iframe before without issue. When I pull up the website the content displays perfectly, but when I embed it into my weebly site there is just an empty box and no content. How do I fix this?

I am embedding storyline presentation. The code I am using is just the simple

<iframe src="http://MyServer.com/MyCourse/story.html" width="980" height="658"></iframe>

And I have replaces the website with where my project draft is. But the page is blank. Here is a link to the weebly page where it is not displaying

It's probably being blocked by your browser because you are using SSL with your site but the URL you're using with your frame is not using https. Browsers view that as a security risk so they don't display the content. If you change your iframe SRC to a https it should fix it, provided that the source you are using has its own SSL certificate.

But we can embed youtube video. So what's happening here?

It's probably a matter of http/https. @jakirmithunbd. What is the url of the page with the broken embed code?

Thank you for your post. Seeing your post helped solve my problem of content not displaying on the website even though it showed in the Editor; and it was obviously not a cache problem because it displayed that way on any/all browsers. 

Apparently the issue was caused by a missing </iframe> closing command which had been left off, and so all content that followed the iframe could not display. Add </iframe> - problem solved.

So Thanks.

And thank you for your added comment - it helped me find my issue that I was tearing my hair out over. I only had the last ">" missing. One character makes a load of difference.

Hi Sheavner, 

I am currently looking at embedding a storyline project into weebly can I just ask how you managed to get to the point where you had your iframe? I can't seem to pull out the URL from the story.html file.

Any help would be gresatly appreciated. 

Thanks,

Steph
