Basic Website Embedding: Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Choose Your Target Website

Before embedding, ensure the target website allows iframe embedding. Some websites block embedding for security reasons.

<!-- Example: Embedding a news website -->
<iframe 
  src="https://news-website.com"
  width="100%"
  height="600"
  title="News Website Embed"
  sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin">
</iframe>

Step 2: Create Responsive Website Embed

Use responsive design principles to ensure your embedded website looks great on all devices:

<div class="website-embed-container">
  <iframe 
    src="https://example-website.com"
    class="responsive-website-iframe"
    title="Embedded Website"
    sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-forms">
  </iframe>
</div>

<style>
.website-embed-container {
  position: relative;
  width: 100%;
  height: 0;
  padding-bottom: 75%; /* 4:3 aspect ratio */
  overflow: hidden;
}

.responsive-website-iframe {
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  border: none;
  border-radius: 12px;
  box-shadow: 0 8px 32px rgba(0,0,0,0.12);
}

/* Mobile optimization */
@media (max-width: 768px) {
  .website-embed-container {
    padding-bottom: 100%; /* 1:1 aspect ratio for mobile */
  }
}
</style>

Embedding Multiple Websites: Advanced Techniques

Grid Layout for Multiple Websites

<div class="multi-website-grid">
  <iframe 
    src="https://website1.com"
    class="website-embed-grid"
    title="Website 1">
  </iframe>
  
  <iframe 
    src="https://website2.com"
    class="website-embed-grid"
    title="Website 2">
  </iframe>
</div>

<style>
.multi-website-grid {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fit, minmax(300px, 1fr));
  gap: 20px;
  padding: 20px;
}

.website-embed-grid {
  height: 400px;
  border: 1px solid #d1d5db;
  border-radius: 12px;
  box-shadow: 0 4px 6px -1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}
</style>

Dynamic Website Loading

// Dynamic website embedding with JavaScript
function embedWebsite(url, containerId) {
  const container = document.getElementById(containerId);
  const iframe = document.createElement('iframe');
  
  iframe.src = url;
  iframe.width = '100%';
  iframe.height = '600';
  iframe.title = 'Dynamically Embedded Website';
  iframe.sandbox = 'allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-forms';
  iframe.style.border = 'none';
  iframe.style.borderRadius = '12px';
  
  // Clear container and add new iframe
  container.innerHTML = '';
  container.appendChild(iframe);
}

// Usage example
document.getElementById('embedBtn').addEventListener('click', () => {
  const url = document.getElementById('websiteUrl').value;
  embedWebsite(url, 'embedContainer');
});
