Thanks, Woonsan,

You didn't give me the actual solution, but you did point me in the
right direction.  :)

Here are some of the strings that will display local pages and documents
in an iFrame:

file:///test.html               <- page at local root directory
displayed.
http://localhost:8080/test.html <- page in jetspeed-2.1.3\webapps\ROOT
displayed.
http://localhost:8080/doc1.doc  <- document in
jetspeed-2.1.3\webapps\ROOT displayed in Word.


In short, while an html file can be displayed in either the workstation
or the jetspeed domain, a word document can only be displayed in the
jetspeed domain.

I guess it could not be shown because the src url is not in the same
domain as the portal. Did you ever try with an http url in the same
domain of the word document?
