Iframe url being is being changed and breaking the functionality of the website in the iframe

I have a client that sells licenses for the software they built through another website. They wanted a seamless solution for ordering software through their Wix site, and an iframe seemed like the path of least resistance.

It worked, but only to a point, when the user tries to check out it breaks …

in the process of troubleshooting this issue, I added a piece of to check the source URL of the iframe:
console.log( 'source is: ’ + $w( ‘#myIframeID’ ).src);
Instead of logging the the source URL I put in my HTML, it comes back something completely different than it should be
http://xxxxxxx-00d4-4312-b680-dbb69ae56ebb.htmlcomponentservice.com/get_draft?id=xxxxxx_2abe61b39815521b6ab3c212015ece8e.html

If I paste the URL I have in my HTML in a browser, the purchasing process works just dandy, but if I paste the URL logged to the console into the browser then I get the exact same broken behavior I am getting from my iframe …

Any insight would be great …

NOTE: does this have something to do with Angular JS Sanitizing the URL, and can I bypass that?

@wingcc might have some knowledge on this!

@burkedunnweb This is a known issue (that the iFrame does not start on your domain), if possible, you can whitelist this domain ( htmlcomponentservice.com ) if the cart provider offers this feature.

For better understanding, please let us know the provider(e.g. Stripe, Foxycart…) of this embedded HTML.

To use PayPal checkout, that should be redirect user(maybe some PayPal policies wants to protect users)
