Hi John, It is generally intended that the views-area of Ambari-Web UI will show only views. Attempting to show some other website in there will result in Ambari-Web hitting security exception (as you have), due to ambari-web javascript trying to change some other website - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Same-origin_policy
It might be better to open your Job link in another window/tab using 'target="_blank"'.

When the link is clicked, the iframe that held the view now goes to the Job History Server and throws the following error in the browser console. Uncaught SecurityError: Blocked a frame with origin <Ambari View> from accessing a frame with origin <Job History Server> Protocols, domains, and ports must match. step9_view.js:1 App.MainViewsDetailsView.Em.View.extend.resizeFunction step9_view.js:1 (anonymous function) The link is inserted into a bootstrap tblflat element row from which it can be clicked. Also, after the link is clicked and the iframe opens the Job History Server, the iFrame height attribute is set to auto which causes the height to shrink between 100 and 200 pixels. Is this the correct action, or should the iframe be prevented from following the link in the first place? What is the expected behavior? - John Bork
