I am using an iframe to publish an interactive chart from Google Sheets. The iframe will not load on the page until I hover over it with a mouse. (Tested with latest chrome browser on desktop and mobile)

Workaround experiment: I changed the iframe from interactive mode to image and the iframe loads immediately. 

iframe frameborder="0" height="371" id="chartframe" scrolling="no" seamless="" src="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRUJ3BujnYfrxc4FCgIfcCg58qEtuaaHRtFZ33MaM-tn4nemyxbp4i3usiJdwHPkXqOn9V-RcpqdLQe/pubchart?oid=197457924&format=interactive" width="570"

Expected: Up until a couple a days ago the iframe for the charts in interactive mode would load within a few seconds. This has been the behavior for several years.

Issue: Then with no changes to my side, all interactive iframes for all charts across multiple websites & platforms and from multiple sheets fail to display until I hover over the chart area when using interactive mode.

(HTML snip shown is what worked fine until a couple of days ago.)

I started seeing this exact behavior recently as well.

It happens with Chrome, Safari, and Firefox (at least).

Here's my iframe code:

<iframe width="550" height="550" seamless frameborder="0" scrolling="no" src="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vQC5Xml_m97eBQfjXeoG9ZP5U-ApXSiDJI7eYYqXzw7tyFBDmVDG5sbLxOoo5O29LOEM0EE21xTfthq/pubchart?oid=525571464&amp;format=interactive"></iframe>

Is yours a SquareSpace website (mine is)?

  • my websites are in two difference locations, blogger and hosted in Google Cloud. So doesn't seem to depend on the host. – user2395416 Jul 31 '19 at 17:10
