Yes in fact the iframe is the only way of doing it securely with the current web specs. ...and it can in fact be done almost completely seamless for the end user, with lil bit of hacking.
- trungonnews 15y agoyup. it's a bitch getting the iframe to resize when the credit card form shrinks or grows.
- grimen 15y agohaha, yes that too. I was refering to secure payments where the host site can affect he layout of payments but not the secret details. Yes you can do that if being creative. :)
- simonw 15y agoIt's not impossible though. One method of doing that is to use the trick where an iframe can communicate with its parent document by altering the #fragment URL, which can be read by both parties. It's dirty but it works. The new HTML5 postMessage API can be used as an alternative for browsers that support it.

- alanh 15y agoI didn’t even realize postMessage was a new API. It works in everything newer than IE7. http://caniuse.com/#x-doc-messaging http://caniuse.com/#x-doc-messaging
