Answer 1

The X-Frame option is a header sent by the webserver of the page you are trying to embed into the iframe. It basically tells the browser not to allow embedding the page in an iframe. Have a look at https://developer.mozilla.org/en/The_X-FRAME-OPTIONS_response_header for a more detailed description.

Obviously Google does not want you to embed it's search results into an iframe.

Answer 2

We are seeing the same problem - this time with google in a standard frame. It was fine a couple of months ago, now it's not working. I think that Google just changed the rules... Not a very open thing to do.

I'd suggest that you run what was in the iframe as a separate child window or new tab - not sure if this will give you the result you wanted.
