X-Frame-Options SAMEORIGIN blocking iframe on my domain

SupFrig picture SupFrig · Aug 29, 2012 · Viewed 80.1k times · Source

i'm using http://www.jacklmoore.com/colorbox to display the content of an url in a lightbox. after implementation, the colorbox did'nt showed anything.

Later, i noticed the following error in chrome logs:

Refused to display document because display forbidden by X-Frame-Options.

so after documenting i added the following line to the root .htaccess of the website :

Header always append X-Frame-Options SAMEORIGIN

to allow iframe embedding on my own domain.

But i still get the error, i'm newbie to x-frame, and i'm working on an existing application, so i thought the .htaccess solution would be nice, but can it be overrided by some code ? Notice that it's not in the server configuration.

Try sending another X-Frame-Options header, add

<?php header('X-Frame-Options: GOFORIT'); ?>

to the top of your page. It should disable the SAMEORIGIN command.
