Affiliate store with iframe on FB not loading in FF or chrome

Ok so I already posted this thread in The 'Facebook' area and got minimal views so I am posting again here. I have been attempting to maximize the amount of affiliates I pick up. One method I have learned was to iframe Seocheckout on Facebook. Well it works fine when framing the home page but if I try for $3 services by using the URL https://a.seocheckout.com/linkin/121814/?s=c it will not show on chrome or ff. Shows fine on safari and I haven't checked on IE considering most people are using Chrome or FF. Does anyone know what the issue might be?

I've searched for an entire day and turned up no results.

The problem with iframes is the secured pages (https) will often break out of frames as part of the security settings of certain browsers. Sounds like that is what's happening here.

Is there a way around this?

Change the https reference on your end to http. Then, when your visitor clicks the link they will go directly to Seocheckout and, at that point, it will automatically change back to the correct https when they go to buy anyway, so you're covered. It just needs to not be seen as secure in your iframe.

I had to do that with my affiliate store.

Thanks Asmodeus but I already tried that I think. By saying "on my end" I am guessing you mean when I enter in the URLhttps://seocheckout.com.... for the iFrame. When I remove the 's' the iFrame does not show the site. With the 's' the site shows but you have to click the shield in the browser before it will do so. Any thoughts?

That should only be an issue if you're pulling the RSS feed, as one line, but several should be fine. I'd have to see it to confirm. Can you PM me the link and I'll have a look at it for you?
