Oh god - I hope I don't have to write a follow-up to this. There's probably a bunch of hidden other firewalls I don't handle but most often I've found 403 and 503 to be the most common.

Hey, OP here - I'm open to advice about how best to handle this! I'm currently just opening a new window and writing the HTML to it.

What's the safest way to handle this? Open it in an iframe?

I've found often in my career that, sadly, learning things the hard way is usually the best way to remember the lessons.

Oh god this is horrible!

Yeah, I can't believe how stupidly locked down some of these networks are.

I once had an employer said they needed a "whitelist" of websites we wanted to visit instead of a "blacklist" of ones we shouldn't. That was an interesting day...
