Can a short url (such as tiny url or any other url create by a service such as tiny url or bit.ly) be passed to SemanticProxy without issue?

I've tried a few on the demo page and it doesn't seem to be working. Will it work if I use the web service?

Hello,

When browsing a Twitter's tiny URL (e.g. http://ow.ly/18eN) we get a horizontally framed page:

When submitting Twitter's tinyURL to SemanticProxy we get irrevelant results. When we submit the target URL it's OK.

Is SemanticProxy supporting or planning to support frames?

I-frames are not supported in SemanticProxy

We do not have plans at the moment to support I-frames.

You will have to send the target URLs directly to Semanticproxy.

Thanks,

Ofer

tiny url and bit.ly can be used by Semanticproxy

I've tried a few this morning and things are looking good now. It did work as expected!

 

Thanks a lot
