IFRAME Resizing Automatically Is Called "star_content"
Mar 12, 2011
I found a javascript code online which automatically resizes an IFRAME based on the content loaded into it.
[Code]...
As you can see, the IFRAME I am resizing automatically is called "star_content" - This frame exists on a page with a set of links below it, which determine what content is to be loaded into it. The content being loaded into it is Daily, Monthly and Yearly horoscopes. The longest being the Yearly one. Now when I click the yearly one, the iframe extends as expected... but if I go from the yearly one back to the Daily or Monthly one, it doesn't shrink again so I end up with a huge gap. I can't show you the page itself because it's a closed site, still in development and I am under a non disclosure contract. However, here is the IFRAME HTML.
[Code]....
So to sumarise, what I want to do is have the iframe automatically resize to fit the content that has been loaded within it. It's doing that when it needs to extend the height of the frame but it's not then reducing the height when it goes back to something smaller.
I have a mysql database with a bunch of quotations in it. I created a blog at http:[url]....At the top of the blog is an iframe window that directs to http:[url]....On that page it uses php to pull out a random quote from the database. The iframe window displays that quote onto the blog.It works great except that the height is not automatically resizing.Is there a way I can use javascript to do this instead? Here is some pseudo-code of what I'd like to be able to do: (p.s. I do not know javascript or much of anything so I am looking for people to tell me how to ACTUALLY do this)
var stringvariable = http://aro2220.com/blog/index.html;
function myMax(anumber, another) { if (anumber > another) { return anumber; } return another; }
function resizeTextArea(t,minCols,minRows) { var lines = 0; if (t.getAttribute("cols") == null) t.setAttribute("cols",minCols); if (t.getAttribute("rows") == null) t.setAttribute("rows",minRows); textLine = t.value.split(" ");
// get lines of textbox lines = t.value.split(" ").length;
// get longest row of textbox. var max = 0;
for (i=0;i < textLine.length;i++) { if (parseInt(textLine[i].length) > parseInt(t.getAttribute("cols"))) { lines += Math.floor(parseInt(textLine[i].length) / parseInt(t.getAttribute("cols"))) ; } } t.setAttribute("rows",myMax(lines+1,minRows)); }
In Firefox this works really fine! But in IE the text area grows very strange. If I add a line, after a while there seems to be a problem with spacing.
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?
the code above gets called every time a new page is loaded inside the iframe (ifrmDisplay) what its doing is resizing the iframe so it can have the same size as the page inside it, so i can eliminate the need for vertical scroller for the iframe, i assumed that it works on opera and IE at the same time, when i tried it out, it worked on IE but not on opera. after lot of time in researching how i can get workaround this issue with opera, that is the best possible solution i have and yet it doesnt work. so i gave up and asking you if you can help me out here , coz this is jst driving me crazy!
the problem is im not a javascript expert, to be honest i jst started doing javascripts about two days ago, that is why im in need for help
by the way, here is inner html for the iframe if its any use

i am trying to resize an iframe which is not in same domain.I tried couple of ways as below: iam loading an html which is in other domain.I kept this syntax in script

Still it is not working..Please suggest if u have any solutions on this.
Its my first in this community and I hope someone can help me on this one. I�m currently working on the personalization of the layout of SAP ERP Portal. This Portal Framework uses Iframes to display the current page and/or applications on the Current Page.Here is a custom draw of a page
---- Custom Componentes Like Menus etc
----- Iframe (InnerPage) � Shows the Current Page
--------This Page can have embedded content and/or More Iframes with Applications
All the Iframes are on the same domain but I only have acess to the innerPage Code and not to the iframes that have the applications.Now we want the innerpage to automatic resize to the current content. This is being a problem (even after using jQuery Plugins or Resize Scripts) because:
1)The Iframes that have the applications change content height using Ajax/DHTML (not triggering load event) and this resize scripts wont call the resize mechanism.
2)I don�t have access to the applications source
3)On some tests ive made using Scripts ( for example Auto Height Jquery, SSI Dynamic Drive )some iframes display the same clientHeight and ScrollHeight Even if theres a scrollbar in the browser window.
Having a problem with iframe resizing when the iframe body is a jsp file which contains a dynamically built ajax table. Users select different options from a drop down. All but 1 is a standard static jsp file. The other is a jsp file with a dynamic ajax table which is generated the second the user select this option from the drop down. Problem is the javascript is not getting the correct height for the dynamically ajaxed jsp file.
Here is the iframe which is loading the contents file. <iframe id="Editor" name="Editor" src="" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" onLoad="resizeIframeToFitContent(this)"></iframe> Resize call: function resizeIframeToFitContent(iframe) { iframe.height = Editor.document.body.scrollHeight + 300; iframe.width = Editor.document.body.scrollWidth; } // resizeIframeToFitContent
As a current workaround I am adding 300 manually to the height this works but throws the height of the normal jsp files well out and makes the page to tall.
What I am codeing is essentialy some digital signaage for my office. I will have a calender that updates through several screens with information in them. The basic page stays the same but the content is loaded into a large iframe in the center of the page and each html file loaded into the iframe is changed using meta tags. This is a touch screen so I want control along the bottom of the screen. I have did this very crudely with css and html. But I would like to refine it a little more with javascript.
I want javascript to control the content of the iframe and javascript to control the buttons along the bottom to manual switch to a diffferent screen along with a button that stops the auto reloading of the page. Here is where I am so far. I have the javascript to automatilly change the iframe src but I need help with the nav buttons and the stop button. Right now the nav buttons are still using the regular <a> tags targeting the iframe.
Is there any way to resize the iframe automatically, so that it could obtain the original height and width of the page which is embedded in that iframe? I actually saw this function on PayPal but I don't remember its link.
somewhere in my JavaScript code in the page, I set the src attribute of the ifrmae. This causes the iframe to load the page as it should.
If I leave this page to another and click 'back' in the browser, I return to my page, and the iframe gets loaded automatically, using the last src value it had.
I don't want that. I only want the iframe to load when my JavaScript code modifies the src attribute.
It is as if the browser remembers in its cache the last value of the iframe src.
I have build a tree view forum, I have used the iframe tag to import it to my wordpress blog .
I have a script that determine the size of the iframe on load:
The problem with the script is that the forum(tree view forum) only shows topics. I have another script that displays the contents of any issue only while clicking (Void). In actual the contents of each issue is charging ahead - but the resize function of the Iframe script not see it.
How do I fix it, that the size of the Iframe will change automatically?
On my homepage (index.html), I have a search field which fires the users input (text) parameters off to another website to perform the search (ie. results.html). What I'm now trying to do is create an iframe on index.html which shows the search results on the same page (without the user having to visit the other website. Does anyone know if this is possible using javascript?
The reason behind this is so that we can use the search on our old website on our new one... without having to re-invent the wheel.
I have an iframe that contains x.asp:Code:<iframe name=chat width=90% height=50% frameborder=0 src=x.asp></iframe>x.asp is refreshed every 1 second using metatag. The problem is that everytime x refreshes, x goes top so the last line is not visible.What I need is a javascript that when x refreshes, scroller automatically goes to the last line
I know that iframes can be set to have scroll bars automatically apear when needed or put them there permanantly. However, I would like to have a Javascript slider on the topmost page scroll the iframe. It was possible to make a link on the topmost page change the content of the iframe by putting the iframe name in the link's target. Is this possible with a slider? I ask this because some of the content inside the iframe is on external pages so obviously we can't add the scroll bar there.
Is there any way to resize an iframe dynamically to the height of its content that works cross browser and works when the iframe content is on another domain than the main page (I have access to both pages, so code can be put in either) Also, it must resize when links in the iframe are clicked (ie when a new page within the iframe is loaded)
I've read through a number of links that discuss various methods of resizing a div; however, nothing seems to work correctly for me. The basic idea is that I would like to implement is a panel that can be hidden (to save space), but collapses smoothly, rather than all at once.
I've tried setting the div's style.height property. Doing so does, in fact, resize the div (at least in Firefox 2.0); however, the inner text does not disappear as the div is resized. Should I apply another CSS style to the inner text or is there another method of obtaining the desired results? Code:
I am using a popup window to show pictures. Each time the user clicks on a thumbnail in the mail HTML page, the popup either appears or reloads a new picture.
Some pictures are portrait, and some are landscape. I build the popup html dynamically. How can I a) resize the popup window to fit the image, and b) pop it to the forefront once the new picture is loaded?
i have a div, i set the innerHTML property to a formatted paragraph of text. however, at times the text exceeds the width (and height) of the div. how do i create a fixed width div and make it use a scrollbar if the contents exceed the height and width specified. i'm using microsoft visual studio, and i have the width explicitly set in the properties but still on setting the innerHTML it resizes automatically.
I have a frameset page as my index.html page and have noticed that if my page is opened in other resolution than the one it was created in, some pictures shift locatiuons.
If this was a non frames page i knew how to fix it... Is there any was to automaticaly resize a frameset proportionaly to the screen resolution?
ex: i want one picture to be exactly 1/4 of the screen, in a one-page i would do someting like...
