Dynamic Resizing Of Iframes Based On Content Height
Jul 23, 2005
Does anyone know of how I could dynamically resize an iframe based on
the content's height (for IE) so that no scrollbar appears for the iframe?
The content will be from a different domain. I have searched on the web and
have seen solution like this
<script>
function resize() {
var oframe = document.getElementById("frameID");
//***
//var odoc = oframe.document; //(1)
var odoc = oframe.Document; //(2)
var obody = odoc.body;
oframe.height = obody.scrollHeight;
}
</script>
The html :
<iframe onload="resize()" src=http://different.comain.content border="0"
....... > </iframe>
I have seen 2 solutions on the web, the only difference being lines (1) and
(2) get substitued.
My browser is version IE 6.
It seems that the solution with line (2) works perfectly when the content is
from the same domain but gets a Permission Error if the domain is different.
When the content is from a different domain solution (1) does not give
Permission error, but instead the scrollHeight is significantly smaller
than the actual content. Even if the content is from the same domain it
still gives the wrong size.
So my question is
1) What is the difference between oframe.document and oframe.Document, why
does it give different results?
2) More importantly, how can I dynamically adjust the iframe size based on
the content height from a different domain?

Trying to get this code to work:
<script type=�text/javascript�>
function resizeframe()
{
var ff = parent.document.getElementById ?
[Code]....
As you can see, all I want it to do is set the frame row's height based on its content.

Having a problem with iframe resizing when the iframe body is a jsp file which contains a dynamically built ajax table. Users select different options from a drop down. All but 1 is a standard static jsp file. The other is a jsp file with a dynamic ajax table which is generated the second the user select this option from the drop down. Problem is the javascript is not getting the correct height for the dynamically ajaxed jsp file.
Here is the iframe which is loading the contents file.
<iframe id="Editor" name="Editor" src="" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" onLoad="resizeIframeToFitContent(this)"></iframe>
Resize call:
function resizeIframeToFitContent(iframe) {
iframe.height = Editor.document.body.scrollHeight + 300;
iframe.width = Editor.document.body.scrollWidth;
} // resizeIframeToFitContent
As a current workaround I am adding 300 manually to the height this works but throws the height of the normal jsp files well out and makes the page to tall.

I run a streaming site and am looking to have the option on a chat room next to the stream. Not everyone likes having the chat facility so I'd like to make it optional.
As the page loads I'd like the content to look like the diagram below with the stream (iframe1) taking up 95% of the page and the other 5% being taken up by an image which will say "open chat". The chat (iframe2) would have a width of 0%. [URL]
Then when the "open chat" image is clicked I'd like the chat (iframe2) to become 35% and the stream (iframe1) to become 60%. If someone could make a nice sliding effect when the image is clicked that'd be even better. Here's a diagram to show what it'd look like with the resized iframes. [URL]

I have the following script resizeing my iframe based on height. The problem is if my site is on one domain say http://mydomain.company.com and the target page is on another domain say http://anotherdomain.mycompany.com the script does not resize the page. I cannot add anything to the pages i am linking to because they live in a CVS repository so i cannot call a function or passs information in that way.
is there any way to make my script work? I'm so fustrated, I'm so close! help!
<!--this script auto resizes the height of the iframe based on contents-->
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function resize_iframe(){
document.getElementById("_iframe").height=768 // required for mozilla/firefox bugs, value can be "", null, or integer
document.getElementById('_iframe').height=window.frames["_iframe"].document.body.scrollHeight
}
// -->
</script>
which uses the following iframe
<iframe width=96% id="_iframe" name="_iframe" src="intro.htm" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" ALLOWTRANSPARENCY="true" onload=resize_iframe();></iframe>

I'm looking for a good cross-domain iframe resizing script that adjusts its height based on its content. I have access to the html/css for the source of the iframe as well. Is there any out there?

I have a content slider called "Codaslider" (ver 1.1 I believe) setup, and using CSS I have an absolute positioned image hovering above the slider at all times. The effect is what I want, where I have a static image of my company's product hovering above the content slider, and the background images slide around showing various features and such.
I would like to make it where the customer can click anywhere within the bounds of the content slider (including on top of the static image), and be able to follow the link for the image in the content slider.
For example, if the background image shows "New Features" or something similar, I want the customer to be able to click anywhere and get to the "New Features" page.
So basically, is there a way to dynamically set the URL that the static overlaid image points to, based on what page the content slider is on?
Here is the javascript that setups up the content slider:
Code javascript:
<script type="text/javascript">
var theInt = null;
var $crosslink, $navthumb;
[Code].....

I have a mysql database with a bunch of quotations in it. I created a blog at http:[url]....At the top of the blog is an iframe window that directs to http:[url]....On that page it uses php to pull out a random quote from the database. The iframe window displays that quote onto the blog.It works great except that the height is not automatically resizing.Is there a way I can use javascript to do this instead? Here is some pseudo-code of what I'd like to be able to do: (p.s. I do not know javascript or much of anything so I am looking for people to tell me how to ACTUALLY do this)
var stringvariable = http://aro2220.com/blog/index.html;
int stringlength = stringlength(stringvariable);
int autosize = 200 + stringlength * 5;
<iframe width="100%" frameborder="0" src="http://aro2220.com/blog" height=$autosize scrolling="no"></iframe>

I've set up jcarousel and configured it to work how I need it to, apart from one thing; I need the images to keep their width - height ratio when the browser is resized.
I'm using the Flexible carousel configuration and the width of the images changes appropriately when the window is resized, but the height stays the same, I need it to change.

I got this working in chrome and was happy until I got to check out IE8! Enough said about that.The code I have now will work (in both chrome and IE8) if I manually set the height and width of the image but I cannot get them dynamically, for instance if images have different sizes, I've been trying for a while now but cannot get anywhere with it.The code I am currently using (of my own creation) is;
$("#lightbox_image_container").html('<img id="lightbox_image" src="http://www.veritywebdesign.com/gallery/gallery_images/image.jpg" />');
$("#lightbox_image").load(function() {
// image_width = $("#lightbox_image").width();
[code]....
How do I get the height and width dynamically after loading the image?

I am building a webpage built with a column on the left, a header, and a main iframe which is the main content of the page. The content of the main iframe can get to be long, and I want the iframe to resize its height to fit the content. I know javascript can do this. I have seen many live examples of it working online. My problem is when I try and use the code myself (even if I leave the live example pages unchanged, but just save them and run them offline) it doesn't work. That is, the iframes work, the page works, but the iframe doesnt fit it's content.
Now, the page that I'm building is fully offline right now and I don't know if my javascript will work just fine if hosted on a domain and accessed online, but as it is it's not working and I don't know why. As an example here is some code, and the page it was taken from

How can I resize the window from JavaScript - and it the inner size I need, so window.resizeTo() is no good as that applies to the external size.
I'd prefer the cross-browser, DOM compatible approach if pos.

if it's possible to re-size a div vertically based on the size of another div.I have this code but it's malfunctioning. Basically it takes the ID of the two divs and offset their height.
Example: The dynamic div will stretch or re-size vertically based on the size of the content div. So if the contents in the content div is increased, like text size, the the other div stretch to give equal height.Here is my code:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">

Im generating multiple iFrames with javascript based on how many times the user clicks an Add button. Each click generates one iFrame. All the iFrames are being generated with the same id/name. What Im having Javascript trouble with is A) figuring out which iframe is which by number (myframe[0], myframe[1], myframe[2],etc) and B) how many iframes are on the page. For A) is there a way to tell what the number value is besides hard coding it? Right now Ive been playing with this in the src page.. window.frameElement.id but that just returns "myframe" and not the number. Ideally I would like to find the number as its being created on the parent page instead of getting it from the src page, here's what I have now for that...

Its my first in this community and I hope someone can help me on this one. I�m currently working on the personalization of the layout of SAP ERP Portal. This Portal Framework uses Iframes to display the current page and/or applications on the Current Page.Here is a custom draw of a page
---- Custom Componentes Like Menus etc
----- Iframe (InnerPage) � Shows the Current Page
--------This Page can have embedded content and/or More Iframes with Applications
All the Iframes are on the same domain but I only have acess to the innerPage Code and not to the iframes that have the applications.Now we want the innerpage to automatic resize to the current content. This is being a problem (even after using jQuery Plugins or Resize Scripts) because:
1)The Iframes that have the applications change content height using Ajax/DHTML (not triggering load event) and this resize scripts wont call the resize mechanism.
2)I don�t have access to the applications source
3)On some tests ive made using Scripts ( for example Auto Height Jquery, SSI Dynamic Drive )some iframes display the same clientHeight and ScrollHeight Even if theres a scrollbar in the browser window.

I am using the bookflip plugin i found here: [URL]
I am attempting to modify the code so the book pages resize based on the screen width... or height... not really sure how this should be done as I need the proportions of the pages to stay consistent.
I have been able to achieve the resize on page load but I now need to add the resize() method to the variable.
This is what I have so far (original code):
var $containerwidth = $(window).width();
var $pagewidth = $containerwidth/1.22;
var $pageheight = $containerwidth/2.05;
I think I need to add an if() statement in the variable that says if page width or height changes resize else original code that is working. I have this code which I know works but I can't seem to get to work with one variable without overriding the original code... which doesn't work with this application.
$(window).bind('resize', function(){
$(window).width()/1.22;
});
Is this the correct approach to achieve this. I have found I must work within the original JS file as overriding will not work.
if(..........? page resizes ?............){
$(window).bind('resize', function(){
$(window).width()/1.22;
});

A UI built using HTML and CSS has limited screen space. One of the elements is a div tag (<div id="mtext">) that will contain text of variable length. If the text is > 500 characters, I am displaying it as a link. When the user clicks the link, I want the text to be displayed in a layer above all the rest of the elements in the page. How can this be done using javascript..
Code:
A div element that contains some text of variable length. If the length exceeds say 500 characters, Display it as truncated text. ( like "Example text...") The entire truncated text becomes a link When the user clicks the link the content in the div element "pops out" to fill the screen above other elements on the page Image showing truncated text... (before clicking) Image showing text display after clicking the text...

I'm using JQuery to write content into an otherwise empty iframe like so:
Code:
$('#ifrmID').contents.find('html').html(htmlContent);
The content is coming from an Ajax request. The content gets used more than once on the page for other purposes which is why I don't simply change the iframe src--I have to do an ajax request regardless so I'm trying to avoid multiple calls.
After I load the content, I need modify the height of the iframe so it fits snuggly around the content.
Calculating the height isn't a problem with the exception that it's not always correct and I think it's because the calculation is happening before images have downloaded.
I don't seem to be able to rely on a `load` or `ready` event to delay the calculation. The load event is the only one that tiggers on a change of iframe content, but it doesn't see the new content.
Code:
$('iframe').each(function () {
$(this).load(function () {
alert($(this).contents().find('html').html());
});
});
This will output '<html><body></body></html>' even though I have successfully inserted different content.
Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong, or if it's possible to do what I want reliably?
Note that a general JS solution will be appreciated as much as a JQuery one.

I'm trying to create the following visual feature on my page (www.enviromark.ca/Collab/study.html). if you notice, there is a border-right: 1px solid grey; on the 'links' div. I would like to do the following:
onload, i would like the height of the 'links' div to be saved into a variable
i assume this would be done using a variation of 'var minHeight = document.getElementByID('links').offsetHeight'
onclick, i would like the height of the div about to be loaded (aka unhidden) to be saved into a variable... say var newHeight for ex.
IF newheight > minHeight, set document.getElementByID('links').height = 'newHeight' + px;
here's how i tried to code it:
<script language="JavaScript">
function setBorderHeight(divName)
{
var minHeight = document.getElementByID('links').offsetHeight;
var newHeight = document.getElementByID(divName).offsetHeight;
if (newHeight > minHeight)
{
document.getElementByID('links').style.height = 'newHeight' + px;
}
}
</script>
here's an example of a link:
<a class="mainLinks" href="learnMore" onclick="setBorderHeight('learnMore'); ball(this.previousSibling); return toggle('learnMore', 0);"
onmouseover="zxcMseOver(this,1);" onmouseout="zxcMseOver(this,-1);">Learn More</a>
what went wrong?

I have a function for a sliding div, you input the height you want it, and it performs lovely. Problem is, i don't know what height the div is going to be (its a help system contents so its ever changing) so i set out to get the height, but this is where i run into trouble, i can't seem to set the height in the function SlideUp or SlideDown, so i decided to set the height as a global variable (outside the functions) but it seems it can't as it doesn't know the height as the HTML has not initialized yet.
Javascript
<script type="text/javascript">
onload=function() {

On the right site there is a box with a vertical scrollbar. It´s a DIV (id="right") with an iframe in it. Maybe I´ll put a DIV with overflow:auto in it but it doesn´t matter now.
The customer wants that this 'scrollbox' takes all available vertical space. That means it should start right under the header and end above the footer.
But when there is much content and the user scrolls down the page the scrollbox has to stick under the top edge of the viewport.
Does anybody know how to realise this?
I think I can use JavaScript to get the y-position of the scrollbox and then change margin-top of the iframe or padding-bottom of DIV id="right" or whatever. Code:
