ISV application displaying in top level window instead of Account detail iFrame

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 50

I have customized my CRM account navigation to include a link to our ISV application which I would like to be display in the detail area of the Account page (which as far as I know is an IFRAME).

Now everything works fine when I am linking to the application running in Visual Studio but when I deploy the application to a IIS server in our QA environment - the link to our ISV application shows the page in a top level window and the account detail page is no longer seen.

Given that it works in Visual Studio I am lead to believe that it is not the application itself but something in the deploying it to IIS that is causing the problem 

Any ideas???

    Whatty,

    As long as you deployed your solution to either the ISV folder within the CRM website or on a custom IIS site that you are referencing in your IFRAME via the URL,  it should be fine from a deployment perspective.

    Where I've seen this happen before is if the ISV Application, tries to start as a new application or is dependent upon some additional windows.  I ran into this with a Java Web App that we were trying to display in an IFrame.  When the IFrame would load the Web Application would try to initialize and it ended up re-directing the parent window (CRM Record) to the URL of the Java Web App itself.

    We had to move the ISV integration out of the IFRAME and into a button on the Toolbar and open it in a new window.  We only did this because there wasn't enough time in the course of the project to re-write and re-engineer the application since we were only using 2 specific pages within the app.

    Thanks,
