Hidden IFrame And Forms - Do They Work?
Sep 10, 2009
I'm trying to solve problem I'm having with my iframe and forms. I have a form that is brought into a hidden iframe. Now I can't seem to get the form to submit? I am guessing this is the case because of how the content in the iframe is brought into the main page. I'm not very good with scripts. Here is my page: [URL]. The form is on the reservations page. This is the form that won't work.
Here is my code:
This is in the stylesheet:
#buffer { position:absolute; visibility:hidden; left:0; top:0 }
div#display {
margin:0 0 0 0;
/*margin: 2em 0;*/
/*border-top: dashed 2px #999;
border-bottom: dashed 2px #999;*/
padding-bottom:6px;
display:none; /* until loaded */
}
This is in the main page (which calls the iframe)
<div id="display"></div>
<!-- onload attribute does not validate but is included here rather than assigned via JavaScript to maximize cross browser support -->
<iframe id="buffer" name="buffer" src="home.html" onload="dw_displayExternal()"></iframe>

In another thread I found that a good way to show and hide parts of a form based on previous entries would be as follows:
function showhidefield (method) {
var hideablearea = document.getElementById("hideablearea");
var hideablearea2 = document.getElementById("hideablearea2");
var hideablearea3 = document.getElementById("hideablearea3");
switch (method) {
case "1":
hideablearea.style.display = 'block';
hideablearea2.style.display = 'none';
hideablearea3.style.display = 'none';
break;
case "2":
hideablearea.style.display = "none";
hideablearea2.style.display = "block";
hideablearea3.style.display = "block";
break;
case "3":
hideablearea.style.display = "block";
hideablearea2.style.display = "block";
hideablearea3.style.display = "block";
break;
default:
hideablearea.style.display = "none";
hideablearea2.style.display = "none";
hideablearea3.style.display = "none";
}}
I know how to use javascript to validate that the forms are infact filled but how do I make it so that it doesn't scan the hidden forms. The only way I could think of would be a huge bunch of if statements. Is there any other way to do this?

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?
By message i mean it checks the database for a new message ( this is for a chat )
Its the javascript im not sure how to set up... If someone could point me in the right direction thatd be great.

Order entry project. I am using an iFrame to pull external forms that I can not change. Once our employee enters in the information and submits I would like to redirect the existing window to a new page.
I've tried many variations of:
<script type='text/javascript'>
function iHistory() {
var hist=history.length;
if (hist>1){
parent.window.location = "orderentry.php";
}}
</script>
Since I have no control of the external form I have been using OnLoad() in the iFrame tag to call iHistory(). The script works great unless the browser history is >1 If possible, I would like to also setup like a 5 or 10 second delay so the employee can see the framed confirmation page before redirect. So the function needs to check current history.length, when that changes delay 5-10 seconds and redirect parent window to orderentry.php

I'm using the following script to trasfer content from a hidden Iframe to a div.
function loadExternal(url) {
if ( window.frames['buffer'] ) {
window.frames['buffer'].location = url;
var lyr = document.getElementById? document.getElementById('display'): document.all? document.all['display']: null;
if ( lyr && typeof lyr.innerHTML != "undefined" ) {
lyr.innerHTML = '<img src="ld.gif" alt="">'
}
return false;
}
return true;
}
function displayExternal() {
var lyr = document.getElementById? document.getElementById('display'): document.all? document.all['display']: null;
if ( window.frames['buffer'] && lyr && typeof lyr.innerHTML != "undefined" ) {
lyr.innerHTML = window.frames['buffer'].document.body.innerHTML;
}
}
It works ok and brings up the linked pages but the images on the pages will not show. The pages are in sub folders along with all the images that pertain to it. Im just confused here, Why does the script load the pages but will not the display any of the corresponding images?

what im trying to do here is create a dynamic hidden iframe and write a form into it and submit. this approach works in FireFox but not in IE7, below is the code im using
document.forms[form].appendChild(isProcessFQ);
var ifText = document.getElementById(rootElID).innerHTML;
var ifSubmit = document.createElement('iframe');[code]........
But when i run this in IE7 its openings a new blank window after the statement doc.open(); and shows some error(which has no useful details) and not maing any calls to server.

i am creating a Greasemonkey script that adds an ajax chat to a website. Greasemonkey is an addon for firefox that lets you modify the html code of websites before they are showed to the user.
I am in the process of creating a wizz feature that will allow you to send a message to a member and where ever he is on the web his gona receive it. The way it works right now is there's a hidden iframe in every page load and when the player has a message it popups a small window
It's working great but the popup is always instantly blocked because firefox has a popup bloker integrated and because it can popup on random websites they don't allow it and there for never gets the message ...
Everything else i tryed was blocked by the fact that it opens in the iframe that is invisible.
I even tryed doing it the old fashon way with an alert() but same thing you don't see it because it's in the hidden frame.
And i tryed adding top.alert() but i get a javascript the "Access Denied" message. The "Access Denied" error in any browser usually means that a script in one window or frame is trying to access another window or frame whose document's domain is different from the document containing the script.
I know DHTML AJAX popup would be the only way to give the user the message with out being blocked ... but how can i make it popup out of the iframe into the main frame with out being blocked in anyway ..

I have a hidden iFrame (display:none) which I change the src attribute of to load new contents. When the iFrame has finished loading I make it visible again (display:inline). This works fine except for anchors. The iFrame will not jump to an anchor when finished loading if its hidden in FF.

Currently I have the following script:-
function validate_form(){
if(regform.reguser.value == ""){
alert("Please completed the selected box");[code]....
to validate a simple registration form, however I initially tried to streamline this function by cycling through an array using a loop to point to various input elements in the HTML page itself. I found that when trying to use a variable in the aforementioned if statements the javascript failed to work i.e.
var test = "reguser";
if(regform.test.value = ""){
}
I know the javascript is looking for the input element "test" instead of "reguser" but is there any way I can force it to look for the contents of the variable.

how to add forms in javascript, but it's limited to text input forms.
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
function updatesum() {
document.form.sum.value = (document.form.sum1.value -0) + (document.form.sum2.value -0);
}
//--></script>
Where the inputs sum1 and sum2 are text fields you put whatever numbers you want in. That works fine. Great. Now what I'm having trouble with is modifying the code so that it will add one form with an input number with a form that spits out a randomly generated number.
<input type="button" value="D20" onclick="this.form.display.value = Math.round (20 * Math.random())" class="buttonHi" /> <input name="display" type="text" size="6" value="" />
This is what I'm using for my random number generator. So basically I want to be able to put, say, 5, into the input text field above this. And then click on the d20 button to get a random number, say, 15, and then have the first code add the inputted 5 with the randomly generated 15.

I am trying to get a simple set of Javascript tabs to work properly. I have just two tabs and I want to set up the script to have the second tab automatically hidden prior to reading the javascript code because right now it shows the contents of both tabs when the page is loading and then the second tab disappears after all the script has loaded.
I have the jquery script linked to on the page and here is the way my script looks to run the tabs:
Code:
I want to add something like style="visibility:hidden;" to the DIV that isn't shown on page load and have it added and removed as necessary when users click on the tabs. So basically I would like the generated code to look like this:

Specifically, assume I have a div tag of absolute dimensions. I need
to figure out, first, whether or not the text inside the div tag is
partially hidden by the overflow setting, and if so, what the hidden
text is.
Is this even possible? Obviously, the rendering engine in the browser
"knows" this information, but is it accessible through Javascript?

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?
