What is an iFrame-Embedded Content?

An iFrame is a frame or container within your web page which allows you to include/embed a piece of content from another source.  Typically on Queen's webpages, these other sources are Mediasite videos, Youtube videos and MS Forms.

The snippet of code that is embedded just needs a title to make it meaningful for screenreaders and other assistive technologies. You, as the content editor, are responsible for adding this title to the embed code.

Currently, there are three content types that you should use to embed content.  Each of these allow you to edit the code to insert a title:

  • DTP - Video Embed (for Videos)
  • Video - Video with Text (for Videos)
  • DTP - Code Only (for Forms)
