This is the opposite of frame unboxers that break a page out of being within a frame. This forces the page to be a frame within another page.

Options

hostLocation

The hostLocation is the URL you want the page to be framed within. This is the simplest option where you want the frame to only be hosted within a specific page.

redirectLocation

The redirectLocation is the URL you want the redirect the top frame to when the page is not hosted within the correct page. It defaults to hostLocation. The redirectLocation is typically used with matcher when you want more than the simple functionality that hostLocation gives you.

If redirectLocation is a function, it will be invoked with:

• The hosting URL
• The current page location
• The options to passed to iframeBoxer

The return value should be the URL to redirect to.

matcher

The matcher will be used to check if the host URL is a valid host URL. It defaults to hostLocation. The matcher can be one of the following:

• A string of the URL.
• A regular expression to match against.
• A function that returns true if it is a valid host URL. It is passed hosting URL, current page location, and the options.
