JQuery :: Way To Get The Raw Contents Of An Iframe's Body?
Aug 31, 2011
I'm currently trying to get the contents of an iframe's body without any mangling of content by the browser.I could do it by including the content in a textarea, however i want to avoid that.using .innerHTML results in special characters such as "<" ">" and "&" being converted to "<", ">", and "&"respectively.To test, build an html file containing:
{
"id": 5,
"testtext":"I am > than this & < that",
I'm trying to make my body content scroll at the same time as an iframe located within the body. This has to do with the age old problem of mouse focus on iframes. When my mouse reaches the iframe and it takes over focus, I would like the body to keep scrolling until the iframe is right at the top of the screen. After that I want to relinquish focus to the iframe. I don't mind if the iframe starts scrolling as soon as the mouse reaches it, so long as the main body keeps scrolling for a while.
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.
Is there anyway to access an iframe's contents via a selector? Something like this:
$("iframe::contents .my-foo")
I'm constantly accessing an iframe's contents for a project I'm currently working on and $("iframe").contents().find(".my-foo") is becoming a bit tedious to type out.
If this feature doesn't exist in jquery out of the box, is there a plugin that provides this functionality? If not how could I write such a plugin?
I am trying to manipulate the contents of an iframe. I have always had success with this in the past but I am stumped this time. The following code works in FF3x but not in IE8.The first alert comes in correctly while the second returns "null".
i have an iframe on page to hold record editing form - the form presented in the frame needs to be different sizes depending on the form size i want the page called to resize the frame but, i can't figure out how to refer to it from the page loaded in the iframe parent().$("#myiframe").height( $("#formcontentwrapper").height() ) ;
So I have a wordpress site I'm just quickly prototyping the design of for my 3D portfolio.I'm using an iframe to display another html page I have for my resume. I want to use jQuery to remove the css paddingYou can see the code that wordpress outputs over herePageCodeThe iframe code in specific is
There must be a standard way of getting the body of an iframe, and adding content to it, using jQuery. what the "best practice" way is? That works in all browsers?
I'm trying to change the body colour of the parent window when a button is clicked inside an iFrame, using jquery. The code I have is as follows but it just doesn't do anything:
I'm trying to pull the source code of the site that my iframe displays. I basically want to get the source code and then display it on the page. I have something like this:
I'm using jquery btw $("#iframe").ready( function(){ var iBody = $("iframe").contents().find("body"); $("#test").html(iBody.html());
I have a some information opened in an IFRAME. What I want is to copy this information. How is this done? What I have (and doesn't work) is:
print "<script> function copyit(theField) { var tempval=eval('document.'+theField) therange=tempval.createTextRange() therange.execCommand('Copy') } </script> </head> <body onLoad="copyit('it.TEST');"> <form name='it'> <IFRAME SRC='$url' NAME='TEST' FRAMEBORDER=1></IFRAME> <BR><BR> <textarea name='TEST2' cols=40 rows=10>APPEL</textarea> </form> </body> <html>"; Now, the IFRAME does show something, so it's not empty. The javascript-error I get reads: Error: 'undefined' is null or not an object Code: 0
This should be an easy one for a change... I just can't figure out the DOM addressing format... either that or its just not possible.
I want to change the body align attribute of the content of an iFrame. The 'why?' is a bit convoluted, I just need to do it from a bit of JavaScript.
I have tried:
Code:
And the FF error console (it will be used mainly in IE but the FF error console is nicer ;-) ) tells me that document.getElementById('myIframe').document is not defined.
I know that document.getElementById('myIframe'). is defined as I can set its src value to load a page, so I'm guessing that the loaded document isn't called document in the DOM.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to being able to manipulate bits of the docuemnt laoded in the iFrame - the body attributes particularly to start with?
I'm using IFRAME to connect back to my ASP.NET page in order to fetch the FreeBox HTML Editor html contents and scripts (i do this apprach because the html editor is fairly heafty to send to the user when most dont use it on our site instead deferring to a user request before actually sending down the code via AJAX or in this case an IFRAME). Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head>
[Code].....
And I have the CGI take a guess at the size of the content when it generates it. Then I have a call to resizeIframe() with the guessed height in it. This seems to work, but I'm not confident that the guess at the new height is correct. So the other question is: how can I get the correct size of the content of the iframe so I can pass it to the parent function?
if it is possible to edit the contents in a iframe to match your sites needs, like for example css/html. Is there any way this can be done in javascript or regular html?
Is it possible to alter the contents of a remote page in an iframe through javascript? I have a page I'm showing from a remote server that has no style at all.. and I can't stand the Times New Roman font on my page.
I am relatively new to javascript and am working on a script where I want to utilizes a couple of iframes and format text in them. I have run into a problem with getting the following code to work in mozilla. It seems to work in ie.
Eventually I will be replacing the H1 node with a table until I can get the H1 node to show up in mozilla there is not much point.
I have tested using both a javascript created iframe and one built in the html file. In both cases the iframes have an id of something_ifr...
I have an intranet page which has an iframe which links to a number of different possible .NET pages.
In one of the embedded .NET pages (and soon to be others) we want to be
able to capture keystrokes in order to link to other apps. we do this by setting document.onkeydown to a function which handles the various possibilities.
The problem I have is that when the intranet page loads with my .NET page in its iframe, focus is not given to the .NET page, and so in order for the page to capture keystrokes you have to click on the contents of the iframe, which is both clunky and (it seems to me) unnecessary.
How do I automatically give focus to the contents of the iframe when it
loads up? I've tried putting the following script at the bottom of the intranet page itself, but this doesn't seem to work:
I trying to figure out why CloneNode on an Iframe does not correctly clone the IFRAME with its contents and is there a workaround I can use to get pass this?. Basically what I am doing is dynamically building a table with Iframes inside it. The problem is I just want to build one Iframe because the contents of it can be very complex. After my Iframe is built I just want to clone the iframe as many times as I need later. I cannot use an HTML file and point the src of the Iframe to it. I have to put into the Iframe a very dynamic HTML document I get back form an Ajax call. This is truly the key of the problem. Since my pages can be complicated it can take around 2000ms to render. I don’t want to make each Iframe render every time when I already have the document ready to display. I just want to clone it very fast. I can not use the ‘scr’ of the iframe.
Here is a very simple example of my problem. Look near the end of the code to see the problem. Try this code and you can see the IFRAME does not Clone its contents. Is there any way around this problem? Please note that I also cannot use innerHTML to populate the cloned Iframe with my master Iframe’s contents. Because if I do this the page still takes 2000ms to render. I just want this thing to clone as it is. Code:
I have a Body onload event (to load the chained Menu) and a windows.onload event (to load the IFrame Ticker).If I open the page in Internet explorer both scripts function; however in Firefox I'm having problems.The Chained Menu works, however the IFrame Ticker does not display. Both events ahave ben placed on the boady tag.how I can get both to display in Firefox.
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>'
Not sure how stupid this requirement is, but I have a scenario, where I am rendering reports via iframe by providing a URLI am rendering reports through iframe by providing the application URL. Now the requirement is to generate a PDF file out of the iframe. I have to create a pdf file from the iframe src. I have no control over the application that is generating report in jsp.Is it possible to capture contents of iframe as image or convert it into a PDF file?
The problem is that now I have a div.Field with TinyMce so an iframe inside it.Something like:

I need to blur the div when the mouse "focus" the iframe body.And of course blur out when it doesn't.How can I add thisfunctionalityto my code?I tried a few changes but none of them worked.
