iframes

the static files issue¶

as of 2026 may, there is no provision to include static files in the mystmd output

• not implicit like _static in jb1/sphinx

• and not even explicit; one coud imagine something like a static definition in the frontmatter, but no

so most of the examples below are not working simply because we try to refer to local assets, but we can’t...

so in order to focus on the matter at hand (how to render iframes) independently of the static files issue, we’ll use a remote url for the examples below

tl - dr¶

• remote URLs are OK

• for locally shipped htmls (e.g. folium-produced maps), as of 2025 march:

  • jlab is mostly OK

  • jb2: I can’t find the URL to retrieve them - whether we put them in _static or in media...

raw HTML iframe: suboptimal !¶

possible to use IPython’s IFrame instead¶

from IPython.display import IFrame

IFrame("https://jupyterlab-examples.info-mines.paris", "200px", "200px")

from IPython.display import IFrame

IFrame("media/addresses-final.html", "200px", "200px")

mystmd iframe¶

cannot set height - and width either apparently...
