How to embed a FlipBook

I would like to embed a FlipBook into my website, but don’t know how to do so with Xway. I used an app to create the Flipbook (Flip PDF Plus), and to generate the code below, which it says I need to embed into my web page:

<iframe style="width:700px;height:400px"
src="https://studioin@studioindiana.com/home/webhost/studioin/sites/studioindiana.com/htdocs/resources/Lynn/Lynn%20Bower%20Flipbook.html" seamless="seamless" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="true" ></iframe>

I suspect that I may not have the https part of the code quite right, but need to know how to embed it so I can test it to see if it works, or if I need to tweak it a bit.

Thanks

Hi John,

You should be able to use an iframe: choose Iframe from Xway’s Insert menu (or click on the iframe icon in the toolbar) and paste the code as the iframe URL.

But you need to have a valid HTTPS link. studioin@ looks like part of an email address, and studioindiana.com doesn’t seem to have an SSL certificate, so it can’t be accessed via HTTPS - this is something you could talk to your web provider about.

It took me a while, but I was finally able to get the appropriate code from the people who host my website. They said that the correct path is as follows:
/home/webhost/studioin/sites/studioindiana.com/htdocs/resources/Lynn/Lynn%20Bower%20Flipbook.html

So, I came up with the following link for my web page:

When I create an iFrame, I paste all the above into the dialog box, and for some reason it changes to this:
https://studioindiana.com/htdocs/resources/Lynn/Lynn%20Bower%20Flipbook.html
Then the box on the page says:
“An SSL error has occurred and a secure connection to the server cannot be made.”
I went ahead and saved the page then uploaded it to the server using Firezilla, but when I look at my website online, nothing shows up.
I must be doing something basic that is wrong. Hope you can help.
Thanks, John

Hi John,

studioindiana.com doesn’t have an SSL certificate, so it can’t be accessed via https.
