    For more information, see "Certificate Errors" in Internet Explorer Help.

     In response to your previousw suggestion to change browsers, this was one of the answers

     

    My form is just about OK, but transferring it through an Iframe seems somewhat biblical.

    You guys in SF have created a really great program but to understand how it all fits together needs an Einstein approach - coz it ain't easy - maybe in a few years I will get to know all its little quirks, but right now it is frustrating the hell out of me.  There is only one form hence URL not needed.

    I have selected the IFrame and copied it but no way in any browser I have used will it let mr paste it onto the 'bookings page on my web site-to-be, at GoDaddy.

    And please do not write back aqnd say 'can you explain the problem in more detail, because there isn't any more detail. OK?

    Hi,

    I presume that you are using GoDaddy website builder? If you are you should be able to find this thread on their forum useful: https://support.godaddy.com/help/article/7684/adding-scripts-and-html-in-website-builder-v6

    Now there are 2 types of code that you can use:

    1st iFrame embed option

    <iframe id="JotFormIFrame" onDISABLEDload="window.parent.scrollTo(0,0)" allowtransparency="true" src="//www.jotform.me/form/42574462302450" frameborder="0" style="width:100%; height:487px; border:none;" scrolling="no"></iframe>
    <script type="text/javascript">window.handleIFrameMessage = function(e) {var args = e.data.split(":");var iframe = document.getElementById("JotFormIFrame");if (!iframe)return;switch (args[0]) {case "scrollIntoView":iframe.scrollIntoView();break;case "setHeight":iframe.style.height = args[1] + "px";break;}};if (window.addEventListener) {window.addEventListener("message", handleIFrameMessage, false);} else if (window.attachEvent) {window.attachEvent("onmessage", handleIFrameMessage);}</script>

    2nd iFrame embed option

    <iframe id="JotFormIFrame" onDISABLEDload="window.parent.scrollTo(0,0)" allowtransparency="true" src="//www.jotform.me/form/42574462302450" frameborder="0" style="width:100%; height:487px; border:none;" scrolling="no"></iframe>

    The second one is pure HTML code so it should allow you to add it to GoDaddy like that. If not do let us know.

    Best Regards,
    Ben

    Because for some unknown reason Godaddy do not allow copy and paste in the traditional way, I guess I will have to type the script in manually

    Hi,

    I have checked and it seems that their website builder does accept the code to be copy pasted into their pages. Sometimes however it is best to copy the code to notepad and then copy it again from notepad onto the website so that it looses any styles attached (such as background color, bold letters, etc).

    Do let us know how it goes once you get the jotform code to your website.

    Best Regards,
    Ben

    Hi Ben, I have just spent 2 hours talking to Godaddy tech support and they have tried to get the 'Booking Form' to load up but to no avail.  They say that the embedded form has to be 'https' and all your systems are 'http', so it looks like a no-go for Jotform'.  Pity becoz you create a nice form and I would really like it to work

    Hi,

    OK, we do have a https variant as well. We call those secure forms and you can get them in the same manner as the code for the plain jotforms, by clicking the Secure Form option to the right of it as shown here:Get embed code for Secure Form

    This would be the secured code that you can add to GoDaddy.com

    <iframe id="JotFormIFrame" onDISABLEDload="window.parent.scrollTo(0,0)" allowtransparency="true" src="https://secure.jotform.me/form/42574462302450" frameborder="0" style="width:100%; height:487px; border:none;" scrolling="no"></iframe>

    Do let us know if you have any further questions or issues setting it up.

    Best Regards,
    Ben
