template.render returns you the contents of the template, and you are trying to provide that to the src attribute. The src attribute should be the LOCATION, not the content.
See http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tag_iframe.asp Should be something like: self.response.out.write('<iframe src="myframe" width="600" height="400"></iframe>') (and then your 'myframe' url returns the contents you currently have in x).
