Getting The Width Of A Frame

Jul 23, 2005

I'm working with a web site that has frames defined as:

<frameset rows="60,*" frameborder="yes" border="0" framespacing="0" cols="*"
bordercolor="#eeeeee" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" marginheight="0"
marginwidth="0">
<frame name="topFrame" scrolling="auto" src="top.asp"
bordercolor="#cccc66" frameborder="yes" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0"
marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" framespacing="0">
<frameset cols="180,*" frameborder="YES" border="0" framespacing="2"
rows="*" bordercolor="#eeeeee" resize="yes" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0"
marginheight="0" marginwidth="0">
<frame name="leftFrame" scrolling="auto" src="left.asp"
bordercolor="#eeeeee" frameborder="no">
<frame name="basefrm" src="common/DisplayInformation.asp"
scrolling="auto" bordercolor="#eeeeee" frameborder="no">
</frameset>
</frameset>

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?

JQuery :: Use A Parent-frame - Objected To Make Child-frame AJAX?

Aug 26, 2011

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.

This is the example.com/index.htm:

Oct 15, 2001

Im trying to make a back button that reloads the previous page the user was at.

Im trying to use this Code:

Breaking Out Of Parent Frame If Child Frame Changes URL

Jul 19, 2006

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:

Defining Div Width Equal To Undefined Amount Of Images Total Width?

Oct 4, 2010

let me try to explain better what I'm trying to do. I'm a real newbie I don't know much javascript but I understand more or less the logic behind it... tell me if this solution should work and if you know how to do it please show me. [URL]... I need to make div#photo's width to match the total width measurement of all the images it contains. If you load the page and you don't touch the size, it will work fine... but that's not realistic. If I resize the page, which will happen often on this kind of page (I'm assuming), the whole thing goes haywire (try it, scroll to the last image and resize the page you'll see what I mean). What can I do? Is my idea the right solution? Am I not explaining this clearly enough? Let me know please, I'm desperate. I've been trying to get CSS to do this for me for 3 hours now. Nothing works.

JQuery :: All Images Must Be Resized If Width Exceeds Max Width?

May 5, 2010

I currently have a website where i share thoughts with my friends (some kind of forum) and within this 'forum' people can post pictures they made but most of the time these pictures exceed the max width of my website so my website gets all streched out!So this is what i want: all images on the page must run thru some sort of function which checks if the image image width exceeds the max_width. if it does then the script must calculate how many pixels the current width exceeds the max_width and get this number so that the script does: current_width = current_width - (max_width - current_width)

JQuery :: Resizing Width Depending On $(window).width?

May 18, 2010

I've recently start using Flexigrid (old JQuery grid plugin), and, as you may know, one of the few issue this really good grid plugin got is the lack of liquid layout option. My personal idea to solve the problem is to set the "width" parameter depending on $(window).width. Here is the problem (and here's why i post this question in "General use" and not in "Plugin").

The starting, and working, code is:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#flex1").flexigrid
(
{

[Code].....

This work fine for me, but I supose it could be done way much elegant... maybe somethin without "IF" that could emulate the "%", like var percentage = $(#div.id).width()*0.XX with the 0.XX picked from an array of percentage, one for each column. Probably I should set up a function... ahhhh, as you may easily see I'm a total beginner with JQuery (and JS in general...)

Set Width Of Item Based Off Combined Width Of Other Elements?

Jun 4, 2011

I am trying to setup a javascript function that sets a div's width based on the combined width of the li's with the name "navItem". The problems I have been running into when trying to define the width of the li's is that they do not have a width defined in css. Can anyone help me out with this? The javascript function setWindow is suppose to show the div loginWindow and set the width of it.

Code:
<div id="topNav">
<ul>
<li><img src="<?php print $site->folder['images']['header']; ?>topmenu_left.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></li>
<li name="navItem"><a href="<? print $site->url['about']; ?>">About Us</a></li>
<li name="navItem"><a onmouseover="setWindow('loginWindow');" href="<? print $site->url['billing']; ?>">Client Services</a></li>

Send Variables From Frame To Frame?

May 13, 2009

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.

Refreshing Bottom Frame From Top Frame

Aug 9, 2004

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:

Frame.contentWindow Vs Frame.contentDocument?

Feb 19, 2009

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?

Onclick Change Div.width Flash.width ?

Sep 10, 2009

I need a code that when a button or image is clicked then a div's width and height are changed.

Ive managed to get a few codes that does this, but the real problem is that, the contents of the div is an embedded flash file and i thought that by setting the flash width and height to 100% then the flash would fit to the new size of the div, but it just didnt work.

I need a code that when a button is clicked then the div's and the flash's width and height are changed.

please have a look at the temp website latinunit net / temp / , you will understand where im coming from.

on the right hand side i have a flash chat in a div , div is controled by a script that allows it to follow the scrollers up and down.

My goal is to add a little button in the same div that says expand or maximise so when clicked the the div expands aswell as the flash file.

Set The Width Of A Div To Be The Same Width Of The Image Inside The Div

Nov 5, 2011

I want to set the width of a div to be the same width of the image inside the div.The following code works great. But...The images are different widths, so both wrappers are set to the width of the first image. Without having to add an ID to each wrapper or image, can the wrapper width be set to the image width using the name of the image as the unique identifier?

jQuery:
$(document).ready(function(){
var newWidth = $('div.wrapper img').attr('width');
$('div.wrapper').width(newWidth);
});

HTML:

<div class="wrapper">
<p><img src="image1.jpg" width="200" /><br />
Caption</p>
</div>

Frame Navigation

May 18, 2006

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
}

Persistant Frame And Div

Jun 11, 2007

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.
