Web Object issues
Hello,
The error message suggests that the web object you tried to embed is configured to prevent being displayed within a frame. To fix it, you need to set the web object to open in a new browser window instead of being embedded. This can be done through the target attribute in HTML or similar settings in other web technologies.

Hi,
I tried embedding a web object in a file and got this error message:
The web address you entered cannot be displayed in a frame. In order to function properly, this web object must be set to open in a new browser window.
I've never gotten this error before. Does anyone know what it means and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Daniel

Can you talk a little bit more about the fix? I know I can have it open in a new browser window as that is one of the options in Storyline but if I want to have it open in the course how do I make that happen? If the object is configured not to fit in a frame, can I change that? I tried different sites like YouTube that didn't work and other ones that did. Just wondering if there is a fix that doesn't include the learner leaving the course.
