Adobe Muse CC: IFrame codes from Amazon affiliate program do not appear on the published site.
SUMMARY:
The IFrames appears in Adobe Muse CC editor:
After I publish the page, they are not present:
STEPS TAKEN TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM / RESULTS:
I've tried pasting the code block directly into Adobe Muse CC / the IFrame appears in the editor - I publish - the IFrame does not appear on the site.
As suggested in this forum, I've also tried prefacing amazon's URL with http: in the scr= and, I got the same results - no frame appears on the published web page.
None of my browsers are set to cache or store Internet files, still I cleared them and refreshed the browsers for good measure / the IFrames are still not visible.
I've tested using Mozilla and Microsoft browsers / the site still does not display the IFrame.
In the space where the frame should be on the page, I've clicked around; and, there's no active regions, where the IFrame should be. These IFrames are coded to take customer to specific pages on Amazon.com linked to my affiliate account.
Per the Adobe Muse forum regarding IFrame issues, I've acquired an IFrame widget designed specifically for Adobe Muse, this one: iFrame Builder Widget for Adobe Muse | Creativated.com
When I use the widget, I see the same indications as before / the IFrame appears in the Adobe Muse CC editor - I publish - the IFrame is not on the web page.
IFRAME CODE FROM AMAZON:
Here is just one example of IFrame code from the Amazon affiliate site that I've used. This one happens to be a banner; but, it really doesn't matter which one I pick. Whether it's a banner or an individual product, the result is the same - no IFrame appears on my web pages.
<iframe src="//rcm-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/cm?o=1&p=12&l=ur1&category=musicandentertainmentrot&f=ifr&linkID=1f7a80ba6334b227f564926f3288abf0&t=disclosure04-20&tracking_id=disclosure04-20" width="300" height="250" scrolling="no" border="0" marginwidth="0" style="border:none;" frameborder="0"></iframe>
PASTING DIRECTLY INTO ADOBE MUSE CC:
When I past the above code directly into the Adobe Muse CC editor interface, the system will clock for a few seconds before displaying the IFrame served-up from amazon-adsystem; again, the image is seen in the editor; but, not after publishing.
USING AN IFRAME WIDGET DESIGNED FOR MUSE:
As mentioned, I'm using this widget: iFrame Builder Widget for Adobe Muse | Creativated.com (see widget interface, above).
All I need is the URL for this thing; so, I've pasted it into the widget, tested with both protocols: http:// and https:// - sized the widget appropriately - the amazon-adsystem serves up the frame in the editor with no problems - I save - I publish - I check - and zippo! There's nothing there - just empty space where there should a frame.
If I enable 'Frame Border' the published web page will display the border - nothing more.
Here's one of the URLs I used in the widget:
While I have designed a responsive web site, all my frames are locked, including the IFrame.
USING A DIRECT-PRODUCT LINK INSTEAD OF A BANNER:
I see the image frame in the editor, as before; but, after publishing, I see a broken link icon on the live web page.
Here is a direct-product IFrame code (which represents text and Image for a book) that results in a broken link icon appearing on the published web page:
<iframe style="width:120px;height:240px;" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&OneJS=1&Operation=GetAdHtml&MarketPlace=US&source=ac&ref=tf_til&ad_type=product_link&tracking_id=disclosure04-20&marketplace=amazon®ion=US&placement=1515217469&asins=1515217469&linkId=402ed37f13e32dd3303105a1c9d3b8dc&show_border=true&link_opens_in_new_window=true&price_color=333333&title_color=00ffff&bg_color=ffffff">
</iframe>
I've also sent a support request to my ISP, as well.
For what it's worth, I also tried to see if Dreamweaver CC could at least display the banner and product ads in the editor; and, it could not.
Has anyone been able to successfully publish an affiliate ad from Amazon.com? If so, how did you do it using Adobe Muse CC?
Thank you.

or
ask a coder to unpack them into something you can post and imo Dreamweaver is the tool because you need to see the FULL code to get it working... once unpacked you can iframe it to Muse or whatever else is wanted.
demo site on Adobe BC = iframe

Here are the steps I took to insert the iframe code blocks into Adobe Muse CC.
Below, you can see a side-by-side comparison between the two browsers. Microsoft on the left. Mozilla on the right:
