Xframey

Xframey is an extension in beta that allows iframes to be inserted into a web page. It sets the X-Frame-Options header to SAME ORIGIN and Content-Security-Policy headers to 'self', overriding any potential DENY values set by the server.

This is useful for extensions that wish to allow websites to frame themselves (like Infy Scroll), and is a relatively safer alternative as compared to allowing cross-origins.

Installation

Installing from GitHub is super simple. First, download the zip and unzip it. Then:

Chrome and Edge

Firefox

Finally: When prompted for the location, select the src/base folder (Firefox: select manifest.json) and it will install.

Important: There is no version update path for the GitHub build.

Alternatives
