I recently had to include an iframe of stackoverflow into an interactive presentation for illustrating purposes. However, stackoverflow contains code and tracking that prevents including any page in an iframe.

Modify the url and upload the above iframe.php to any php capable public server. Reference the new index.php as your iframe, instead of directly linking to stackoverflow.

Note that for security reasons, I added the url as a static parameter.
