ckeditor add <iframe> tag in editor - iframe

I am using ckeditor in a drupal 7 site. I want to put iframe tag inside the editor.
Currently what happen when we put iframe in ckeditor.
<iframe src="http://www.lipsum.com/"></iframe>
It convert that iframe tag with a img tag with some special attribute and URL.
<img class="cke_iframe" data-cke-realelement="%3Ciframe%20src%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lipsum.com%2F%22%20class%3D%22placeholder-tool%20helpTool-placeholder%22%20scrolling%3D%22no%22%20frameborder%3D%220%22%3E%3C%2Fiframe%3E" data-cke-real-node-type="1" alt="IFrame" title="IFrame" align="" src="http://testsite.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/images/spacer.gif?t=C9A85WF" data-cke-real-element-type="iframe" data-cke-resizable="true">
Which I do not want. I want to make the ckeditor to print exact iframe tag there not the img tag like this.
<iframe src="http://www.lipsum.com/"></iframe>
So that If I want to perform a task in iframe so I can do that inside the editor.
Thank you in advance
Addition 2:
I need the iframe should work in editor itself. It should not convert iframe to img on node add or edit page also.
It should like this
Not like this

Finally, I have to make one line change in ckeditor.js at line number 8194:
return m.createFakeParserElement(p, 'cke_iframe', 'iframe', true);
To
return p;
So it is not creating FakeParser for iframe. And when I put a iframe in edit mode so I see the iframe exactly not the image in place of that.
It is a little hack I used for this functionality.
Thank you Darko for help on this.

Problem solution:
In current newest release of CKEditor (4.5.8) there is a minified file ckeditor.js. In order to have iframe enabled in edit mode you will have to change next line in that file:
return a.createFakeParserElement(b,"cke_iframe","iframe",!0)
into:
return (b)
Due to security reasons that option is by default disabled and this is the way how you can override it.
That is solution for this particular problem. Below are some of possible problem solutions if you have problems with iframe in CKEditor in drupal 7.
Addition:
Go on:
admin/config/content/formats/filtered_html (assuming you use that text format) and add <iframe> in Filter settings (in Allowed HTML tags).
When you post iframe in ckeditor now make sure you don't post it inside any other tag.
ex.:
<p some text <iframe src="http://www.lipsum.com/"></iframe> <br> </p>
that will not work.
<p>some text </p> <iframe src="http://www.lipsum.com/"></iframe>
that will work
Best way is to go on "source" mode in ckeditor and insert iframe there on place you want.
Addition 2:
From your comments i assume you trying all this on online ckeditor? You can't see final result there (node page view) because there is showed only edit view (which is temporary).
Ckeditor converts all your content based on settings (not just basic settings in texts format). For instance ckeditor converts some HTML reserved characters in they entity names or entity numbers because ckeditor itself using HTML to show you preview in edit mode.
ex:
<iframe src="http://www.lipsum.com/"></iframe>
is converted in:
<p><iframe src="http://www.lipsum.com/"></iframe></p>
You can see there that "<" is converted in "<" and ">" is converted in >. Browser need "< >" in source to properly load iframe. So solution is to using "source" option in ckeditor.
So i will repeat once more. Enter text, pictures and all content you need in ckeditor edit mode. When you want to add iframe you go on source mode and put it in content (in that way ckeditor will not convert HTML reserved characters, or maybe some else in your url).
Of course you can edit your iframe there and format size, border, scrolling etc...After saving your content you should see iframe properly loaded. In your case:
Addition 3:
Due to security reasons, to prevent users from breaking site layout and/or to avoid posting invalid HTML that possibility is disabled (like iframe working inside editor). If you are so determent to achieve that you can always go with old modules because in new ones that doesn't work.
In new library there is an option you can try:
admin/config/content/ckeditor
There you can edit Full profile and under ADVANCED CONTENT FILTER you can try disable Advanced content filter. Flush the cache after that. If that not working go with old modules.
Go disable module ckeditor
Install wysiwyg
Install old ckeditor library (just copy old library in /sites/all/libraries )
You need CKEditor 3.3.1 and older
Go on admin/config/content/wysiwyg and select that library
When you do this you should considering all the risks. Hope this post will be helpful for someone else too. Cheers.

Open a link in a frame/lightbox

im using wordpress and want to add a link which open in a frame/lightbox. Cant find a small solution for that.
There should be no new window. Just a content box which appear inside the page where i am. I hope u know what i mean
That should be pretty easy using the Easy Fancybox plugin.
Citing the entry from the FAQ section of the plugin's page:
Can I display web pages or HTML files in a FancyBox overlay?
Yes. First, enable the iFrame option on Settings > Media. Then, in your post or page content create a link to any web page or .htm(l) file in your content. Then switch to the Text tab in the Classic Editor or to Edit as HTML (under More options in the block menu) in Gutenberg, find the link <a ... > tag and give it a class="fancybox-iframe" attribute.
Voilà !
Beware, though, that:
Note: Not all external web pages are allowed to be embedded in an iframe and may be blocked by a server response header or script. The result will be either an empty/blank light box or the target page “breaking out” of the light box and loading in the main browser tab.
And you'd probably face the same problem with any other iframe solution. So that would work better with locally served pages.

Preserve original website formatting inside ckeditor?

I'm trying to do a simple wysiwyg editor and I am trying to edit this page.
I inserted that code into my editor and included the original css file from the website, yet it seems like ckeditor is putting its own tags around the overall content which breaks the original design. Is there a simple way to overcome this?
Thanks
Inline editing is what you want to do there. Simply render the website (component) in your admin panel, using your default, frontend styles and create inline editors for all editable fields. Finally serialize contents of editors.
CKEditor uses CSS from ckeditor/contents.css - you have to add your CSS there.
Your file is visible at http://makehugeprofit.com/editor/ckeditor/contents.css?t=E0LB and as you can see, it doesn't contain much. How did do "included the original css file from the website"? Merge it with contents.css and you'll have greater luck.
The editable area is an iframe and thus not in the same CSS space as your surrounding site.

Django CMS Deleting HTML5 Tags and Attributes

I am having a big time issue with solving a problem. I have a placeholder called main for the content region of the page. I was building that region in the cms. Everything was going great until I attempted to add an embedded video contained in an iframe. When I save django cms completely removed the iframe and left an empty div. So I attempted to use prettyphoto light box to open the video by clicking on an image. The code I added to the page through the cms is:
<a rel='prettyPhoto[youtube]' href="https://www.youtube.com/embed/mqVZF_yb8C0?autoplay=1&start=1765&iframe=true" data-rel="prettyPhoto">Click Image</a>
When I saved, django cms completely removed the data-rel attribute from the link which is obviously needed for the js. So I went a step further and adapted the code of the data attribute to:
rel="prettyPhoto"
and the cms also removed that attribute! Also anytime I add an html5 tag like article of section it hates that too! What gives here? Am I doing something wrong? Any advice would be appreciated. 
Aaron,
Thanks.
Please see the discussion at https://github.com/divio/django-cms/issues/1529. We use html5lib to clean the contents of the text plugin (this cannot be turned off for security reasons).
What you'll want to do is write a custom plugin (possibly one that can be embedded inside text plugins).

CSS for specific text on Confluence

I am wondering if there is a way to use custom css for some specific text on my confluence page (not using embedded HTML).
Sorry this is an old question, but for the sake of people who search for an answer to this question: you can use span or div macros and use the custom css to apply whatever style you want to their contents.
If necessary, you could create custom div and span classes to allow for multiple styles to be applied to selections of text.
EDIT: Here is an example of the wikimarkup you could use to do this
{div:class=customCss|style=float:left; margin-right:50px}
Custom text in a div
{div}
So you can either use the div class and apply a style in the custom css for the confluence space, or you can use an inline style for the div.
You can do this ...
{composition-setup}import.css=/download/attachments/123456789/custom.css
{composition-setup}
That's if you've stored a custom.css file as an attachement. You'd obviously need to replace 123456789 with the actual attachment number.
You can also link CSS on an external site (with an absolute URL), but if you have any automatic URL formatting, that tends to mess it up everytime you change the document.
I use a User Macro that renders the $body in HTML. Then I can put whatever HTML tags I want in the wiki page within the user macro tag.
There could be a way to reach what you want to reach, but there is some information missing (from you). What confluence allows is the following:
If you have admin rights to the confluence wiki space, you could add there a custom style sheet that applies to all wiki pages. Else you could follow the answer of Mus.
Then you should analyse the wiki page in source form. So load a wiki page you want to style, and look at the source of that wiki page in your browser. Depending on your browser, this may be CTRL-U or something similar. Here in chrome, the page menu says View page source.
Try to find the defining selector for your wiki text you want to style in some form. A reasonable hack could be:
Find a wiki style that is not used by others. I have experimented with ~subscript~.
Find the HTML tags that are built by using that style. In my example, it was <sub>subscript</sub>.
Use your custom style sheet to style text of that style.
However, this may change the text where the style is used for its original sense :-(
You can specify custom CSS in your Confluence page via the div and span macros.
In recent Confluence versions (4.0 and later), you can do this as follows:
Type {div} or {span}. On typing the closing brace }, auto-complete will convert the text to a macro.
Left-click on the frame of the macro and select the Edit button
Enter the custom CSS into the Style field and close the dialog
Enter your text into the macro frame. It will then have the style you specified.

Adding images into blocks html

I've added some html code in my Blocks content and enabled Full HTML filter.
I've used relative paths for my images, such as "sites/all/themes/zen/zen/image.png"
I guess this is not correct because I need to change my paths depending on I'm in the home page or "node/id" page.
I guess I cannot use PHP inside blocks, thus I cannot use $base_url... how can add images path with only html ?
thanks
The previous answers provide a part of the solution, but here's a fuller scoop:
Hand-written HTML
If your site lives at example.com (i.e. it's the "root" site), then adding a front slash to your relative path will solve the issue, as others have suggested:
<img src="/sites/all/themes/zen/zen/image.png">
However, if your site lives at example.com/my-drupal-site, then you'll need to write it like this:
<img src="/my-drupal-site/sites/all/themes/zen/zen/image.png">
It really is better if you can use PHP to determine the appropriate path. If you're calling an image from a theme, you can use the Drupal function drupal_get_path to get the path like this:
$img_path = drupal_get_path('theme', 'zen') . '/zen/image.png';
And then you could be really Drupaly about it and use the theme_image function to generate the HTML for the image:
$img = theme('image', $img_path, 'My Image - Alt Text', 'My Image - Title Text');
Where $img now holds the HTML for the <img> tag and its src, alt, and title attributes. See the API documentation for drupal_get_path and theme_image for more information.
Point-and-click Solution
As jeffreymb points out, your easiest bet is to use a combination of a WYSIWYG editor and a built-in file handling module called IMCE to gloss over all these details for you. If you don't have access to the "PHP code" input format, this is the best solution.
So, steps:
Install the WYSIWYG module, as well as a WYSIWYG editor (I suggest CKEditor).
Install the IMCE module and IMCE WYSIWYG Bridge module, and enable the IMCE button for your WYSIWYG editor in its configuration settings for available Buttons.
See this post for a little more detail on that setup process, and make sure to read the documentation that the WYSIWYG module displays on its configuration page.
Once you have IMCE installed and integrated with your WYSIWYG, when you click the "Image" button in your WYSIWYG toolbar, your normal dialog should appear but with a new little icon to open the IMCE file browser. This file browser allows you to browse your files folder for images or to upload new files. It also supports a modicum of image manipulation, and will automatically generate the necessary HTML once you've selected an image.
I would recommend using the Pathologic module for this case. It is a filter that you can add to your input formats to convert relative URLs like that into proper URLs using your site's base URL. Plus it's useful if you have images in your RSS content as sites that re-publish the content (like feed aggregators, etc.) have the link to the full URL.
I use the CKeditor and IMCE modules to do this on my sites.
It is very user friendly and not that hard to set up.
Instead of the relative path, use the absolute path. So it'd be:
<img src="/sites/all/themes/zen/zen/image.png">
Note the slash at the beginning. The slash should be the only thing you need to do to convert your existing relative paths to absolute ones for use in straight HTML.
If you start your image paths with a slash ("/sites/all/themes/zen/zen/image.png") this will always be relative to your drupal root directory.
You could also simply select "PHP code" as the Input format, and use $base_url as you say.
I does this with cck blocks . The cck blocks is drupal module,it can put drupal fields into blocks
