I'm having problems writing a "preview window" for some user input. Essentially, I have a <textarea> that I'm pulling their input from, and replacing the contents of an iframe with that data.
Instead of writing it as "<div>", etc... it writes "<div>" The browser therefore just displays all the text instead of interpreting it as html.
Code:
function content() {
return(document.getElementById('content_area').innerHTML);
}

How can I re-write a table dynamically in the same page?
document.write seems to write to a new page.
I have an existing page that dynamically creates data in a popup
window. I am trying to change it to use an iFrame. Is the following
code valid:
The iFrame is as follows
<iframe src="theframe.html" name="theframe"></iframe>
"theframe.html" is an existing file initially with instructions.
In a script I do
thewindow=window.open("","theframe");
thewindow.document.open();
thewindow.document.write("Some Requested Data");
thewindow.document.close();
This is done multiple times depending on what the user requests each
time. Sometimes this works and sometimes it doesn't. I'm probably doing
someing very wrong but I don't know where to look for reference.
I'm not really opening a window so there must be another way to do it.
What is the best way to write to an iFrame or should I not even try?
Code:
I'm struggling to find out why the iframe is not being populated with a selectbox containing the album names from an XML file. majority of the code is working fine and the "alert(s)" function works perfectly and displays exactly the html I would like it to but the bits in bold are not working and are not writing the html to the iframe.

I'm trying to dynamically write out this line of javascript:
obj.offsetLeft
So I want to be able to feed a param of either Top or Left in and then write it out so it gets execuated correctly in the javascript....so i've tried stuff like:
function findPos(axis) {
obj.offset[axis]
and
function findPos(axis) {
obj.offset+[axis]
where axis is either Left or Top
I am currently trying to create a simple form based web-page (uploaded here [URL] that creates a query for a WMS (Web Map Service).
The page consists of about 10 different forms, which are all put together in a (string) variable named "compiledQuery" in a function named "compileRequest" which is activated via a button. I would like to print out this variable on the page so that the users can see the query for themselves. After doing some research I came to the conclusion that the best way to do this would be via an iframe (I do not want to use a pop-up). The function I use to do this is:
function printRequest()
{
var query_frame = document.getElementById('frame_compiled');
query_frame.document.write(compiledQuery);
}
"frame_compiled" is the name of my iframe:
<iframe name="frame_compiled" width="400" height="125">
</iframe>
I know that "compiledQuery" has been assigned a value (I used an alert with the value). Hence, I also know that the "prinRequest"-function works on principle... However, it seems as if I am having problem with retrieving the name of the iframe to the function (I tried doing an alert with the value, it was returned as null).
So, I suppose my question is this: How do I properly retrieve the value of the iframe, and am I on the right way using document.write to show the value of "compiledQuery" to the users? Or should I use another way of doing this completely?
I'm working on some code and am running into brick walls. I'm trying
to write out Javascript with Javascript and I've read the clj Meta FAQ
and didn't see the answer, read many similar posts (with no luck
though), and searched through the IRT.ORG Faqs
(www.irt.org/script/script.htm).
The Javascript is designed to open an popup window and then inside that
window call another script which will resize that window. There may be
another way around this but the reason I tried this approach initially
was that I wanted to call the onload handler in the popup window to
resize the image only after the image had completely loaded. I've had
some code in the primary Javascript file (showimage.js) before that
works if the image has been cached but on the first load, it doesn't
resize properly which tells me it is probably because it is trying to
resize the window based on the image size but it isn't completely known
at that point. So I removed that code and tried placing the resizing
code in the second Javascript file (resizewindow.js). BTW I've tried
other code to open a popup image and automatically size it ie Q1443 at
irt.org but that doesn't do exactly what we need.
Even if there is another way to do this with one file, I still want to
figure out why this isn't working in case I run into it in the future.
I thought what I would need to do to use document.writeln to write
Javascript would be to escape any special characters and to break
apart the script tag ie
document.writeln('</SCRIPT>');
would become
document.writeln('</SCR' + 'IPT>');
I have a HTML page and 2 Javascript files. All files are in the same
directory and have permissions set correctly.
Here are the 3 files (keep in mind wordwrap has jacked up the
formatting):
index.html
----------
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

showimage.js
------------
function newWindow1(pic,sitename)
{
picWindow=window.open('','','width=25,height=25,sc rollbars=1,resizable=1');
picWindow.document.writeln('<html> <head>');
picWindow.document.writeln('<SCR' + 'IPT type="text/javascript"
LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1" SRC="resizewindow.js"></SCR' + 'IPT>');
picWindow.document.writeln('</head>');
picWindow.document.writeln('<body onload="resizewindow();">');
picWindow.document.writeln('<img src=' + pic + '>');
picWindow.document.writeln('</body> </html>');
picWindow.document.close();
}
resizewindow.js
---------------
function resizewindow()
{
// Do resizing here.
// Right now this isn't being executed
alert("resizing window");
}
Can anyone provide some pointers as to why this javascript is failing?
I'm using IE6 on Win2k and when I click on the image to open the popup
window, it does open the window but it is white with no content and the
system immediately goes from about 4% CPU usage to 100% and
consistently stays there until I kill that window with the task
manager.
If I do this:
el = document.createElement("iframe");
el.src = "test.htm";
el.name = "frm"; // or el.setAttribute("name","frm");
document.body.appendChild(el);
the iframe gets created but the 'name' attribute is not added under IE
6. I tried setting the 'name' after appending the iframe but still no joy.
How can I add a 'name' attribute to an iframe so that IE 6 sees it?
There seems to be some strange behaviour when trying to get the
scrollHeight and scrollTop of an iframe in IE6.
I have tried several ways of getting these values when the iframe is
written into the html. The following return the correct values in IE6,
where the iframe's id is 'f':
f.document.body.scrollHeight
f.document.body.scrollTop
window.frames['f'].document.body.scrollHeight
window.frames['f'].document.body.scrollTop
document.frames('f').document.body.scrollHeight
document.frames('f').document.body.scrollTop
The following give a strange value for scrollHeight (definitely not
the length of the contents of the iframe) and scrollTop is always 0:
document.getElementById('f').document.body.scrollH eight
document.getElementById('f').document.body.scrollT op
document.all.f.document.body.scrollHeight
document.all.f.document.body.scrollTop
When I dynamically create the iframe, using myFrame =
document.createElement('IFRAME'), I get the same strange values as
above when I do this:
myFrame.document.body.scrollHeight
myFrame.document.body.scrollTop
However this works as correctly in Opera 7. I find this all very
confusing. Can anybody shed light onto how I might get the correct
values in IE6 when using the createElement() method?
I am building iframes from database entries. Is it possible to resize them with an onclick event?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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]....

View 4 Replies View RelatedI cant seem to get the reference to the 'header' IFrame that is dynamically created. I can reference one called 'footer' that is created in the same line of code as the other IFrames however (oddly enough). I've tried numerous ways with no luck. Since this is inherited code and designed years ago to run on IE only it's a mess. You'll see I've tried alerting out various different ways and simply left it in to show my feabile attempts.
Code:
function mit(e) {
var iframeElement = document.getElementById('header');

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.
know how I can use JavaScript to find the size of my iFrame and feed it to Shadowbox to launch the appropriate sized shadowbox on different browsers and resolutions. For me, the parent page is called 'demo.html' and the iFrame is 'gallery/archive_iframe.html'.
Currently, the shadowbox is launched with a fixed height and width (which you will see in the HTML code below). The problem is that 'gallery/archive_iframe.html' displays differently on every browser and every resolution, causing unwanted horizontal and vertical scroll bars. An example can be seen here: [URL]
Here is the code that I use in 'demo.html' to launch the iFrame:
Head
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/shadowbox/libraries/mediaplayer/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/shadowbox/shadowbox.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src='/shadowbox/libraries/mediaplayer/swfobject.js'></script>
[Code]....
What do I need to do in 'gallery/archive_iframe.html' if anything? My thought is that I need to wrap it in a DIV tag and find the width and height of that. And what do I need to do in 'demo.html'? I'd assume some code is needed to pull the dimensions discovered in my iframe document, and insert those into the link that launches Shadowbox.
I am trying to write a Greasemonkey script using jQuery to automate various processes on a web site. One of them involves automatically filling in a form located in a dynamically generated iframe. When the frame is generated I can do $('#NewFrame').length and get 1 confirming it is now available. However, when I do $('#NewFrame #TheForm').length I always get 0 even though I can clearly see the form there in the iframe.

is there any way to make my script work? I'm so fustrated, I'm so close! help!

I have created a page which pulls search results from various sites using PHP. It displays each result in a row in a table upon running.
I wanted to add a button saying "More information" at which point, a div would appear and load the associated link for that search result within an iframe within the newly appeared div. I've been able to get a div appear and disappear on button click but, I couldn't get it to dynamically load an iframe on click with the associated search results link.
