Dynamically Resizeing IFRAME Height Based On Content
Jul 8, 2005
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'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'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 want to integrate a forum (phpbb) inside my custom made website. The problem is that there is no way to dynamically adjust the iframe height..I thought javascript would be the best way to do that, the problem is that i know nothing about JS... Here is my idea,
-2 scripts, 1 in the parent page (the one with the iframe tag) and the second one in the main forum page
-The script inside the parent page, would dynamically set the "height" parameter inside the iframe tag based on a value passed by the second script.
-The second script, inside the forum page, would read the entire content of the (document.body.scrollHeight) current page and sends its result to the first script.I have found a script that was supposed to do that, but for some reasons it doesnt work very well. Here is the link where i explain de problem with it: http:[url]....

I've set the page up with an iframe because I figured then I would only have to update menu links on that main page and then there'd be less chance of missing a link somewhere along the way as new updates are added. I know this could probably be accomplished with .css, but I don't know how to do that either!
My problem is that the iframe won't adjust height to allow for the longer pages without adding scroll bar. My neighbor doesn't want it to look like its a separate box at all, so no borders and no scrolling can be used. I've tried the various solutions I've found online and either they do nothing or they stretch the page that's loading in the frame to ridiculous proportions AND still adds a scroll bar.
As I said, I haven't designed in several years and I never learned JavaScript at all. I suspect my problem is probably due to not understanding which bits of code I need to change to my iframe name. The IFrame SSI IV totally confuses me, though I do think that's the one that would ultimately work if I just knew where I was supposed to plug in my iframe name and target info.
My iframe name is, quite simply, "content" and the first page I want loaded (when someone first visits the site) is "whatisreiki.html" (my neighbor does Reiki on animals). The site is www.lovingtheanimals.com but I am working on this particular issue on www.lovingtheanimals.com/iframetest.html so that I don't totally screw up the site where visitors might be affected.

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.

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?

I have a 3 column CSS layout design. The page length is dynamic depending on how much content gets fed into each respective column. For this reason one column might be considerably longer than the other two, as a result the page length opens us white space in some columns.
Given the white space that appears if some content in columns is longer than in others, how could I measure the white space and depending on its height dynamically add in further content providing it fits (say additional side banners)?
I'm told this is possible in JS? I guess PHP is also a viable option?

First time posting here. Have been enjoying all the resources available to us, very helpful. My problem:
Recently started learning css / java - i have a web page with an iframe on the index pages within a div tag, which then loads all other pages into this iframe. The thing is i require the iframe to adjust its height size according to the content loaded.
After lots of searching a have come across only one that worked for me,however it only seems to work in IE and not firefox and the like.

I'm making a wordpress theme that will have a SMF forum incorporated into one of the pages. I've decided to use an iframe that calls in the forum (which is in the same domain), after trying several of the auto height scripts, including ones I used before with success, I got nothing. I'm not sure if it's a wordpress thing, but the scripts I'm so familiar with just don't want to work. Since forums change their height with all the different pages, this is an essential script for me. The only script (a new one) that somewhat works is the following:
Code:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function resizeIframe(obj) {
obj.style.height = obj.contentWindow.document.body.scrollHeight + 'px';
obj.style.width = obj.contentWindow.document.body.scrollWidth + 'px';
}
</script>
Which eventually gets called with:
Code:
onload='javascript:resizeIframe(this);'
inside the iframe tag.
Now, this seemed to work just fine, but now the height of the page gets added the more I browse. If for example I go to a topic with a lot of replies (meaning, a long page height) and I browse back to the index page, that extra height isn't gone. You can see what I mean here: [URL]. I was wondering if there is something that can be done to this script to stop this and properly resize the iframe. The other script I've used was: [URL]. Which worked great as you can see here: [URL].

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'm looking for a script to change the height of a iframe depending on the loaded content. I found some scripts who let it work when a webpage loads in the iframe.
But when the height of the page changes by javascript animations.
Like a box is getting 200px higher by a javascript action. The page won't reload by this action so the iframe height remains in it's current height.
Anyone has a good script that the iframe height even changed on javascript commands?

Im making a website in which I want to "embed" another website (not mine) - implesignup.se - through which i've created an event. The problem is that I want to hide the footer of that page, maybe the header to if its possible, but since the height of the other page varies throughout the steps in the "buying-process" I can't set a fixed height...Is it possible to fix this problem using jquery and how do I do that?So, something like this is what i want: autoheight - x pixels from the top - x pixels from the bottom

I have a webpage with an IFrame in it. The content for the IFrame could change per page and with it size. I don't want scrollbar's inside the IFrame but rather for the whole page. To accomplish this I must resize the height of the IFrame (width = fixed). But I can't seem to accomplish this. The links within the Iframe load the new content but I have to access the parent document to be able to resize the IFrame height. How I can resize the iframe from within javascript in the IFrame.

I have been having an issue with this script to resize my iframe(ifr) based on the content loaded in it.I am half bald from this issue. Works perfect in IE7 & 8 but not in FF or Chrome.FF works "almost" - It resizes on first page loaded but doesn't resize if the iframe content is changed until refreshed. (example: If I load search results which shows 10 results and then click one and it loads the page which isn't as high as the search results page was then it just stays at the larger height until I refresh and then resizes correctly.)

how to adjust the iframe height by itself if my html height increases. My html code includes a facebook comment at the bottom of my page and the comment will show making it expand the height once users post comments. On the other hand, I'm using a CMS that have its own iframe. I've tried many solutions that can be found on the web but none works. It only can work if I don't put in CMS. Is it possible to adjust the iframe height using CMS or there is no way?

Is there a way to resize an iframe dynamically so that you never get the scroll bar and essentially hide that there is an iframe? Better integration really.Basically I want to iframe a forum into my site so that the design down the sides and top which my friend does using iweb are not messed with.We have a central area which can be longer or shorter depending on the forum.

The problem is that i want to open a new window with the corect size in wich should fit a aaaXbbb px size picture!
The following isn't right:
window.open("","height=bbb width=aaa" )
Because only the window will have the specified size and the picture will not fit inside!
An other option wich works under Netscape, Opera is the following:
if (window.innerWidth || window.innerHeight)
{
docwidth = window.innerWidth;
docheight = window.innerHeight;
var dw,dh;
dw = window.outerWidth;
dh = window.outerHeight;
}
window.resizeTo(bbb+dw-docwidth,aaa+dh-docheight);
This works fine under Netscape, Opera but IE doesn't know both innerWidth, outerHeight!
