Trouble pulling external website into Splunk Dashboard panel

I've tried everything I could find on the boards here.

Could use some help getting an external (well to Splunk anyway) web page to display in an existing xml dashboard as a panel.

I've tried the following (and many variations) to no avail.

 <panel>
   <title>PROTECT THIS HOUSE!</title>
   <html>
     <iframe src="http://gaitstools.ga.com/PTHouse/" height="200" width="1000" style="border:none;"></iframe>
   </html>
 </panel>

Thanks!

Hi,
In 5.0.5 and 6.0, as part of a security-related fix (reference SPL-65987) Splunk disabled the ability to insecurely embed content on a remote site by default.

To restore this capability, you now need to make an explicit change in web.conf to the x_frame_options_sameorigin parameter and set it to False:

 x_frame_options_sameorigin = [True | False]
     * adds a X-Frame-Options header set to "SAMEORIGIN" to every response served by cherrypy
     * Defaults to True

I hope this helps!
