Why Chome Secure Shell SSH extension dose not work within iFrame

0

Secure Shell Chrome works fine for me, it's great! Now I'm trying to put in a desktop html using iFrame, but it does not work.

It works well in separate browser window 

<a target="_New" href="chrome-extension://pnhechapfaindjhompbnflcldabbghjo/html/nassh.html">
SSH root@test New Window</a>

But it does not work for iFrame 

<a target="iframe1" href="chrome-extension://pnhechapfaindjhompbnflcldabbghjo/html/nassh.html">
SSH root@test iFramed</a>
<iframe name="iframe1" id="iframe1" width="90%" height="400px" src=""/>

Does anyone know a workaround? thanks

I can't find any references to cite, but this is due to the security policy for the chrome-extension:// protocol. Allowing remote pages to load extensions in an iframe would allow remote pages to probe which extensions you have installed. – heavyd – 2014-05-27T16:52:08.683

Also, check the developer console (F12) for error details. – heavyd – 2014-05-27T17:01:57.843
