Firefox doesn't render an iframe, although IE does. How come?

I've tried to create a link to an Amazon product on my website. Amazon generates an iframe link, which I've included in my website. When viewed in IE, the iframe is visible and working. However, when viewed in Firefox, there's simply a blank space where the iframe should be.

Thanks.

I do get a pop-up with a link to the Amazon website, so the code seems to be working.

Try to reload the web page and bypass the cache with:

  • Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
