I’m trying to create a visual editor where the user creates a 3D scene, and my application writes the code for the project itself. I want to create a testing feature where the code that was generated is run. I’ve looked into using iframes, but as far as I know, you need a specific URL for iframe.
Here are some ideas/solutions I’ve come up with:
- Is there a way to manually feed code to an
iframe, without a file or URL? - Is there any other easier way to accomplish this task?
- Can this be done without server side code?
Let me know if you need any more information. Thanks!

Yes it is possible however a much simpler way would be to just create another html file somewhere on your server/host and just disallow external access to it so it’s only accessible from the iframe.
You have to use an script to give code to an iframe without a source file like this:
<iframe id="my-iframe"></iframe>
<script>
document.getElementById("my-iframe").contentDocument.write("<h1>Hello World</h1>");
</script>
This will work but it will be a big pain to format the html from the iframe. Also as far as I know this is the simplest way that fits your needs.
