Using a form to display an external iframe dinamically

[Falcoita]

Hello, i'd like to visualize an iframe dinamically based on an input field of a form, for example if i want to visualize the page relative to a service PPP i'd like to insert PPP on a input field and then processing the form i'd like to visualize (in content or in a popup) the iframe http://www.xxx.com/service?service=PPP

how could i do that ?

thanks

Have you tried using a calc element, to generate the <iframe ...> tag, using a placeholder for the service?

The calc element must return the string, not echo.
return '<iframe src="http://xxx.com/......." />';

It's working on my site, iframe showing in list/form/details.
Check for typos (in your code post#5 the closing ' is missing).
