I want to link Amazon S3 https object like “https://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/index.html” to facebook iframed fan page…
But it returned error….

After few searches I got link…. but not helpful

Finally, I got good article on AWS Forum..

I came to know that facebook loads the requested HTTPS S3 URL “https://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/index.html” by sending a form POST and injected some content into the iframe, but S3 have POST for file uploading only… so it returned “MethodNotAllowed”

Bucket Policies won’t work in this condition…

Now, I have few options to use S3 HTTPS Object “https://s3.amazonaws.com/bucket/index.html” in facebook iframed fan page…

1. Run a HTTPS Apache server that can load S3 HTTPS Object with POST method and supply to fan page
2. Load S3 HTTPS Object using another iframe on any server… see code below

Thanks for this post! I’ve been scratching my head frantically trying to figure out the problem…

As for the workaround, are you saying I can use either option 1 or 2, or do you mean I need to use both?

I’ve tried doing just the iframe with the sub-page as https, but it hasn’t worked for me. I’ve tried using the main page containing the iframe as an https (obviously that doesn’t work because that gets me the original error message), and also using a regular http page, which loads blank when my facebook account is https-activated.

Am I missing something?
