I am using Internet Explorer, and I am creating a navigation bar that will take place for the one in the normal. It is in a frame, whick is my homepage. I have an address bar, and when you click go, or enter, the bottom half goes to that page. If you click a link on that page however, the URL in the address bar does not change. Is there a way that it can update itself with the URL of the other frame?
I'm having a hell of a job getting this to work in Safari: the only thing I can think of is that one can't use reload() across to another frame for security reasons. Does anyone have a concrete answer or solution for this? I'm trying to do this:
The frame on the right is an mp3 player which is permanently there, and the frame on the left fills the rest of the page with the actual website. The user can navigate around the whole website just fine without interrupting their music.
The only problem I've got is that I can't seem to update the browser url to reflect the url of the first frame, I can't even update the hash. If I modify the hash of the index.php through any of the following means:
I have some code that changes a PDF file in another frame using:
parent.frame.document.location.href = "PDF File"
This code works fine the first time it is called. But if a PDF file is in that frame and the code is called again IE gives me an error:
"no such interface supported"
I have used this code for the past 5 years and it has worked fine with Adobe Acrobat 4-6 it is only 7 that started to cause me grief. It is only IE that has this problem, Netscape seems to work fine.
I have checked the web and talked to Adobe and have yet to find a solution.
Is there a difference between right clicking an iframe and reloading post reponse vs. using javascript to reload the frame? So far, the javascript route hasn't worked for me. [some context] I am writing a little bookmarklet to help me with the online registrations at my school. Here is the setup.
Load up a page on the domain. Remove all body elements. Insert an iframe. Set iframe to page for class roster search. (in iframe on school search page) Select class search options, POST the form data, and view results in frame. *This works perfectly, but I need to have it refresh results every minute or so. When I use frame.contentDocument.location.reload(true); the frame loses the post data or something and the page is broken. BUT when I just right click on the frame and select "reload frame" it works perfectly. What is the difference between rightclicking the frame and refreshing it like that vs. using javascript to reload the frame?
I have a domain: example.com; which is the parent.And a subdomain: api.example.com; which page 'receiver.html' is being loaded in an iframe, child of parent. Both pages set document.domain = example.com.
I'm trying to adapt this code:[url] but Idon't want to load jQuery from the <iframe> again but I need to have the method $.ajax() working from the <iframe> otherwise it would be a cross-domain request and the browser would abort it. I tried ingenuously to set via $('iframe')[0].contentWindow.$.ajax = $.ajax() and I just got a shortcut to the parent page jQuery method. I also tried to "clone" it using $.expand (true...) but the method doesn't work for me; probably because of the complexity of the objected I'm trying to clone. So is there a way for me to use jQuery to have only a $.ajax() method in the <iframe> ? I've thought even about creating a XHR in the child-iframe and then use that in the $.ajaxSetup ({xhr: THATNEWXHR}) but I couldn't do it. I mean, I want to use the XHR factory from jQuery (which has fallbacks for IE, etc) but it has to be created from the iframe-child.
Maybe there is other way to make the AJAX call come from the child-iframe.
If you're wondering "why don't you load jQuery from <script> in the child-iframe", there is a reason... As I'm using jQuery plugins + my own custom javascripts + other independent scripts I created a compiler which minifies each file and bundle them in one. The advantage of this is the reduction of HTTP requests. So "why don't you load that bundle inside the child-iframe?", because it's ugly and Twitter doesn't... Yeah, I like to take Twitter as a reference and I think if they were able to make it so can I;
I got to work in most browsers except IE and Operaby doing it with pure javascript.
I'm "attaching" the code for you guys to test. If you open it with Chrome, Safari or Firefox you will receive 2 alerts one with the return of $.get() and another with the return of a request made via XMLHttpsRequest object. Otherwise (if you open it with IE or Opera) you'll get 'undefined' in the first alert but the real return in the second.
Im trying to make a back button that reloads the previous page the user was at. The back button will be on a small top frame and the page that needs to be controlled will be in the main frame.
The top frame is just a navigation system, and all pages will be loaded in the main frame. Im trying to use this Code:
I want to have a main image in place and when you click on 1 of the 3 frame options the frame changes showing a preview. Also I would like the add to cart button change its code to add the correct item as well.
i need to pass the data in the textfields from the left frame to the textfields in the right frame of my frameset. (ex: dslnum of frame1 will be pass to txtDSLTN of frame2)[URL]
I have two frames (frameset, let's call it frame1 and frame2). Frame1 has links..., and frame2. When some link in frame1 is clicked, it must be changed content of the frame2. Here's example: click. How to do that? (I don't see any javascript code)
I have a parent document that has a frameset with two frames in it. The first frame is a "header" that runs across the top of the site, and never changes. The second frame contains the "content" of the site. Essentially, I am trying to figure out how to prevent the header appearing above external sites when the user clicks an external link in the "content" frame.
Every time the content frame changes to a new URL, I would like the check that URL and determine if the content frame is changing to an external URL (i.e. different domain in URL) or to an internal link (same domain in URL). If the content is changing to an external link, I want to break out of the frame and just load that external link in the top most document.
I would like all of my javascript to be in the parent document, not spread throughout the individual pages of the site. I was trying to approach this by setting the onunload event handler of the content frame, but I am left with a couple of specific questions: 1. In handling an unload event, can you determine the next URL that the document is loading? Code:
I have a little problem, I structure my site with a main page index.html with a frame in the central whit name CENTRALE, so every other page I will open within this frame. Now I need to have a direct link to these internal pages, give an example I wish it were possible to go to the page clothing giving a direct link to that section of the site type www.indirizzo.com / clothing.html because the state of things if I take the 'direct address to that page I open only the part inside of the frame, but I wish I would open inside the "main frame, there is a solution in javascrip to overcome this problem?
I have a frameset with two frames; topFrame and mainFrame. I have code in topFrame and wish to print the contents of mainFrame. The code that I have used has worked for many years and still works on my localhost Apache Server. However, it has now "stopped" working. When I press the button in topFrame it prints the contents of topFrame The code that I am using is
I use dreamweaver mx html editor to make web sites. I think I know enough Html to get by. My new site uses a frame set so the head and controller don't change reload or move. This works nice, now all I have to do to make a new page is make the content page. But my problem is if I send out a link for someone to look at, it only loads the content page and not the frame set. I thought I could use javascript to determine if the frame set is present and if not load it. But I can't seem to find a way to sent variables from one frame to another. Also if a user clicks a link I would like my flash controller to reflect it.
I need to know how to refresh a bottom frame TO a specific dynamic URL from my top frame (meaning the code has to be in the top frame) say every 5 seconds. The top frame will be a php file as I need DB values. But I believe the frame thing is done via javascript. This ain't working so far, it only loads the first URL at not the rest. Is there the ability to refresh to a specific url in a target frame. Code:
One more question about manipulating iframes. In a script I've looked through to investigate AJAX file uploads, there is this technique for accessing the contents of an iframe:
Code: if(frame.contentWindow) { var thebody = frame.contentWindow.document.body; }else if(frame.contentDocument) { var thebody = frame.contentDocument.document.body; }
I haven't been able to find much info on contentWindow and contentDocument. In fact, other sources I've found talk only about using contentWindow to access an iframe's contents, ignoring contentDocument completely. What is the difference between the two, and what browsers is the contentDocument check targeting? Any modern browsers, or is this a backward compatibility thing?
Danged if I can find the thread, but I swear I saw a $.url() reference in here a day or two ago. It was beingutilized for parsing out the window.location or window.location.search parameters. I made a mental note because that was something I would be needing to do.
Now I can't find it, either because the search isn't finding it or I was dreaming about this function existing.
I rummaged about the API docs and didn't find it there either. Is it something provided by one of the plugins and not a function native to jQuery?
anyway, i have 2 frames. how can i close the top frame from a link within the top frame? i want the lower frame to be the only page displayed but i won't be able to know what the lower frame's url will be.
I need to get the width of "leftFrame" from a script running in one of the other frames (usually "basefrm").
I tried parent.leftFrame.width, but it returns "undefined" (but parent.leftFrame.name does return "leftFrame"). I suspect I need something before ".leftFrame", since the framesets are nested. How would I refer to leftFrame to get its width?
I have a back and next function. Back takes to the previous page and Next takes to the next page. On some pages I want users to answer a question before hitting the next button. If the users do not answer the question the next displays an alert box. Now the following code does that. But here is the PROBLEM
If you have answered the question once and you go back. You NEED NOT answer the question again and clicking NEXT function will take you to the next page
Each content page has a variable. The following goes on each top content page <script language="javascript"> var pageNext = "ab_04_01_0030" ; var pageBack = "ab_04_01_0010" ; eval("var " + pageBack + "answered = false"); // dynamic variable set per page </SCRIPT>
// The following functions are in another frame called navigation function GoNext(page_name) { page_name = page_name + ".htm" ; if (page_name != "#"){ var valu = top.Content.pageBack ; // Frame name is content if (top.Content.eval(valu+ "answered") == true) { top.Content.location.href = page_name; }else{ alert("You need to answer the question"); CheckAnswer(); } } }
function CheckAnswer (){ var valu = top.Content.pageBack ; top.Content.eval(valu+ "answered = true") ; // temporarily sets that you have answer the question }
I'm trying to make a menu that will not change with the pages: I have insered an hidden frame to manage my javascript. This javascript is in charge of creating and displaying the menu. But can the menu be displayed in the other frame (the visible one) and not been erased when a link is click in the main frame ?
A good example is the Gmail application: When you open a chat, you can change the page in the main frame while your chat window stay opened.
I would like in fact that the frame is reloaded in the same way that when one uses the function " reload frame" of the contextual menu of Netscape 4.x.
