iframe links of published Google Documents


I have published a Google Document that contains some links. I have used the iframe code to embed it on a webpage. However, when clicking on its links, the iframe is being replaced by the link's target url.

I have tried to dynamically download the frame and replace a div placeholder (ajax + jquery), but it's not an elegant solution as there is basically an html document embedded on the parent html document. ( I have other problems with this approach)

I have also tried using the tag:

<base target="_blank">

but it doesn't work.

Another failed attempt was by using the onload attribute of the iframe element. Then with jQuery I was trying to modify the target of all the a elements.

Any help? Thanks in advance!
