Standalone slingcode.html unable to launch apps

[bryan-lott]

Hi, I'm unable to launch an app from slingcode if I download the slingcode.html file and run it locally. After clicking on the launch button for (for instance) Hello World, I just get a blank screen with no app. Running it from slingcode.net/slingcode.html works as expected. In addition, after I've opened the blank screen/no app, if I then edit the app, the stop button shows but doesn't seem to work
Tried on both Chrome and Brave.

The console for the app edit screen when clicking on the stop button gives the following output:

VM5 slingcode.html:1 Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'DOMWindow': The target origin provided ('null') does not match the recipient window's origin ('null').

Happy to help however I can!

@bryan-lott perfect, thanks for all the detail here. I have replicated this issue and will fix. 👍

Note to self: investigating this further new versions of Chrome are blocking access to MessageEvent.source object. A potential workaround is to ask the destination frame to do the re-rendering itself with a postMessage, rather than trying to push directly into the window.

just FYI: Latest Firefox works fine
