In Strategy Web 2021, after performing a search in an element prompt, "Request timed out" is returned as shown below:

In the Console tab of the browser's developer tool, it returns the following error message:
Refused to display '<website>' in a frame because it set 'X-Frame-Options' to 'deny'.

The "Request timed out" happens when "X-Frame-Options" is set to "DENY" for Strategy Web. When the header is set to "DENY", the page cannot be displayed in a frame, even from the same origin and consequently impacts the usage of prompt element search in Strategy Web.
The value of the "X-Frame-Options" is configurable via the Strategy Web Admin interface and only allows setting it to "SAMEORIGIN", which means the page can be displayed if all ancestor frames are the same as the origin of the page itself.
This can be done by going to Security, and enabling the checkbox for "Prevent clickjacking by adding an X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN header to page responses."

This means that an administrator must have set the "X-Frame-Options" value to "DENY" by manually modifying the web.xml file.
