I am nOOb to Javascript and wanted to extract HTML from another website. I tried this by using an iframe that opened up the desired webpage and called a script to read the innerhtml of the frame using the onLoad event.
It fails however with a Permission Denied error when trying to extract the html via the script (see code below).
Not sure if I am doing something worng, or if this is just not allowed on ClientSide scripting (I can appreciate writing isn't) but not being able to read.
Anyway, assuming this can't be done in this manner, is there another way in which it might short of using server side scripting?
<SCRIPT language = "Javascript">
function readFile()
{
doc=window["myframe"].document.body.innerHTML;
//TBD...
I'm using an i-frame to grab a server-side text file and display its content elsewhere in the html document. On change of the i-frame source, I want to access its innerHTML.
The i-frame source changes just fine and even displays the source; the glitch is in accessing the innerHTML for that new i-frame src file. It requires *TWO* clicks of the onClick element to get the correct innerHTML (with just one click, the source will change, and display the new file in the html document; however, the innerHTML is still that of the old source file for the i-frame).
This does not appear to be a loading problem with the new src file into the i-frame. (ie: setTimeout on a function to get the innerHTML after the src file loads does not work).
So the question is: how can I get the i-frame source to change AND access the new src file's innerHTML with one click?? Code:
Is it possible to get the contents of an iframe (I need a method that allows me to get the generated HTML code of an XML file that was transformed by an XSL file)?
I created a page that has an iframe on it. Within this iframe I call an asp page. The asp page is supposed to do some work and then update the innerHTML of a <div> object on the parent page to indicate that processing of the page in the iframe is complete. The code works in IE but not FireFox. I am wondering what is the best way to make the script work for both browsers?
HTML Code: var iframe = document.getElementById("message"); var iframeContents = iframe.contentDocument.body.innerHTML;
var txtarea = document.getElementById('message2'); txtarea.value = iframeContents; This will read the contents of an iframe, and write it to a textarea. iframe is editable, and content is entered by the user. Still, this works.
But, below code is not working. Trying to put some content to an iframe, with the same innerHTML method above. It returns no errors or warnings. Even last alert() displays "<div>lorem ipsum</div>", but iframe is empty, it displays nothing..
HTML Code: var textContent = "lorem ipsum"; var iframe2 = document.getElementById('message'); iframe2.contentDocument.body.innerHTML = '<div>'+textContent+'</div>'
I'd like to resize an iframe into which different (same domain) pages of differing heights are loaded. I can do a first-time resize no problem. It's the subsequent reloads that need to pass back their height to the parent page There seem to be lots of solutions for that around, but few I can see for resizing each time the iframe reloads. One is described here on another board [URL] but unfortunately the test page is no longer around (or indeed the site), so the full code is no longer available there. This one works, almost, for me: [URL] it does resize for me, but not quite sufficiently high each time - about 90% of what is required: [URL] Is there a way to add on sufficient extra margin that scrollbars no longer appear?
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.
I have a page A and inside it I have an iframe B. B points to another php file that shows a form (so basically in the iframe we see a form). When I submit the form, I call to another page C that verifies the fields of the form and if they are ok I redirect to page X, if not I redirect to page Y. The problem is that I see page X and Y inside the iframe, and I want to see them in the parent page.
I have a page that displays in an iframe. How to get the index of the iframe in the parent window in which my page is getting displayed using javascript.
HTML Code: <html> <iframe src="A.html"></iframe> <iframe src="B.html"></iframe> <iframe src="C.html"></iframe> </html>
if I run the javascript from B.html then I should get the iframe position as 2. same way, if I run the javascript from C.html then I should get the iframe position as 3.
I have a web page which will display another web page in an iframe. But the content inside the iframe may change while the user interacts with it so I need to be able to resize the iframe height from code on the page inside the iframe. Any tips on how I can do that? I am using php and javascript.
How would i go abouts putting a javascript code into a hidden iframe and then have it update new messages to another frame if there is a new message?

I am getting data from two tables in a database using a dropdown box with a onchange and some ajax to update two diferent Div tags, basically the id is passed to a php page,, I grab the data from the two tables, I then echo the data in two html tables. I echo a ** for a delimiter between the two tables,
Then I use a javascript split function to split the responseText into two peices so I can update each DIV with the coresponding data.
Everything works in Firefox, but in IE7 only one div gets updated with its data, the other div will not change, and I get a unknown runtime error. However if I go into my php page and change the data I am echoing after the delimiter to a simple echo 'test' it will work. Code:
I've got this code that creates a new new row and cell. I then put some text into the cell with innerHTML - works beautifully with Firefox but fails with IE. I guess IE doesn't support this way of doing it, but is there another way of doing it with DOM?
Here is my problem in a nutshell: a script to model dynamic table extension. It works under Firefox. But IE just aborts, complaining about an "unknown runtime error" in the line with "innerHTML". Why?
<html><head></head><body>
<script language="javascript"> function extend() { var tb = document.getElementById('thetable').tBodies[0]; var newrow = document.createElement('tr'); tb.insertBefore(newrow,tb.rows[tb.rows.length-1]); tb.rows[tb.rows.length-2].innerHTML = '<td>A</td><td>dummy</td><td>row</td>' } </script>
