Using IFrame To Pull External Forms That Cannot Change
Aug 24, 2009
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 working on a project and within a document I have content being loaded into an iframe. When a user clicks on an item in the iframe, a pop-up div is loaded using the facebox plugin but it's obviously contained by the iframe. Is there any way that I can pull that element out of the iframe into the parent document? Or at least position it so it looks like it's part of the parent document and not the iframe? My reasoning for this is sizing and positioning. I want to expand the size of the facebox div and position it over top of some of the parent document elements but, since it's within the iframe, I'm limited to the size of the iframe and positioning is limited to being within the iframe.

I am a newbie trying to generate an alert message when a user leaves a username filed blank in an html form using an external javascript. Following is the code for html file.
[Code]....
However, if I swap the positions of the username and first name i.e. place the first name before the username, I do get an alert message if the first name is left empty. I do not wish to hijack an existing thread. Please let me know if there is an existing thread on this issue..(I could not find one).

I'm trying to develop fast, simple, html-based front ends
for some Windows application programs. My idea:
1. Use html forms to let users supply run parameters (title,
run options, etc.)
2. When the user presses a submit button:
a. The selected options for all the form fields are
written to an external file (e.g., c:projectinput.txt)
b. The application program, say, prog.exe, is executed.
This program then reads the run parameters from the file
input.txt and proceeds. Code:

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>

<body>
<iframe name="alertiframe" id="alertiframe" width="1" height="1" src='xmlsample.html'></iframe>
<script>
function alertfunc()
{
sometext = window.frames['alertiframe'].document.all.tags['to'][0].innerHTML;
alert(sometext);
}
</script>
<a href="javascript:alertfunc()">Click Me</a>
I am working with an older browser more of MAC IE. It works with DOM 1 and extremely partially with DOM 2. contentDocument and contentWindow does not work on this browser.
The above code works very nicely, however as soon as I rename the file to "xmlsample.xml" with an xml extension, it does not work anywork. If you have any other solutions please let me know. Rem we can't use any newer techniques, this is very basic DOM.

Is there ANY way to get the URL of an iframe if the page the user is on is an external domain? I know this is normally blocked by the "Same Origin Policy", but I'm just trying to find out if there is SOME workaround. All I'm trying to get is the URL.

If I try to put a site into an iframe that has "escape frame" code in
its source (posted below), it will reload the requested page into the
parent instead of the iframe. Is there a way to prevent this from
happening?
One could use onunload to stop the redirection, but I would like to
find a way to load a page into an iframe, even if it has this type of
code.
I have considered server code loading the content and re-displaying it
but I would like to find a pre javascript solution.
//this is not my code
if (self != top) {
if (document.images) {
top.location.replace(window.location.href);
} else {
top.location.href = window.location.href;
}
}

Disclaimer 1: I am not a programmer, just a curious designer, so please take that into consideration in your replies.
Disclaimer 2: Despite all advices against it, I couldn't find a better solution to my website than using iFrame
Disclaimer 3: Before asking for help, I researched *several* forums and although I found people discussing similar issues,
implementing a method to intercept and redirect external links to a dynamic iframe. By "dynamic" iframe I mean an iframe whose SRC would be filled up in accordance to the external URL being intercepted and that it would resize its HEIGHT accordingly in order to avoid scroll bars.The function for resizing the iframe id="child" is already correctly implemented like so:
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function calcHeight()[code]...
This "replacement" function would be called onLoad and if tested true would run and refresh the page with the proper value in the iframe SRC.All this should be accomplished while still making the iframe HEIGHT dynamically adjustable and show a "clean" URL in the browser, such as "http:[url].....The potential issues I foresee is an infinite loop due to two onLoad queries (one for SRC, another for HEIGHT) in the parent and child objects, which might required a merge into a single script.

I have built a basic website that contains an iframe in the middle, called "iframe1". In this iframe I wish to load an external message board from proboards.com. In my code I can easily do this by making a button or hyper-link with the href="http:proboards.com/myforums" and the target="iframe1".When I do this it will load inside of it the iframe jsut as I want it to. However, my the problem is when you click on the button to login its coded to target "_top" and it opens on the entire page replacing the whole website. If i run firebug (a real time HTML editor). I can easily locate and change the link code to target="iframe1". But How can I write a script in javascript in my webpage code to do this as soon as the iframe has loaded the external messageboard?

I am trying to get an iframe to have dynamic height - I want it to resize to fit the contents of the page.There is a four or five step process within the iframe. So for example, page 1 is rather short, and it'll have a link that sends you to page 2, which might be rather long.I have no control over the pages I am using in the iframe and they are on another domain.I have googled and and searched the forum and I've yet to find anything that works. A lot of them say they're not cross-browser compatible, but I haven't gotten anything to work how I'd like in any browser.I'd like to do it without jQuery.

I want to change the action attribute of certain forms. I am new to JQuery so I wrote this code but it doesn't work at all:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("form").not("form[action*=/nxpages/index.xhtml]").each(function(){
alert("Cat1!");
});
$("form[action*=/nxpages/index.xhtml]").each(function(){
alert("Cat2!");
});
})
</script>
But it seems that JQuery doesnt work at all. How can I change the above code to modify the action value to something else?

I have several hundred html links in a file "main.html" pointing to external websites. ie: "external.html"
When a user clicks an external link from within "main.html", I want to bring up "external.html" in all its glory, but with a banner / header across the top (I am guessing iframe is a good option) - so effectively the link will take us to "frame.html", with "banner.html" and "external.html" in an iframe (or alike).
The banner has to be populated with information specific for that "external.html" file. ie: when they click on the link to "external_1.html", the header might have the text "external_1".
So, I am happy with doing this as a one off, but can't see the method to have a single 'onclick' script to pass the required information from "main.html" to "frame.html", and then for "banner.html" to be updated with the text passed from the 'onclick', and to know to call in the correct "external" to populate the iframe.
I will further complicate it by asking if it is possible to have all the scripting required contained within "main.html"?

This is a "can I" or "is it possible" question:
If I have one main html file that calls an external JS file that contains only an array (infoArray), know I can do this code...
Now the question...
Instead of 2 different main.html files, to load the different inforArray.js files, can I somehow overwrite the contents of the infoArray
AFTER the information has been loaded from the first external JS file?
I have seen code that adds elements to the <head> section as the page loads,
is there something similar to load/change array information during or after page load?
Or is this something that should be done by having text information in the file and loading with ajax and processing to an array afterward?

I have found a solution for showing an element on page load (it should be hidden if JS is blocked), but the CSS and the JS go into the <head>. I prefer to keep all such code in external files, so how do I adapt it to support that approach? Found code is as follows (if it can be improved on, feel free to say so):
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
document.write('<style type="text/css">#myDiv {display: block;}</style>');
</script>

I am in a bit of a rut in the self-teaching with JS. I am trying to get links to change the external js file currently on the main page without reloading, the external files are basically long document.write sections with a few interactive functions.
The closest I have found for help with this so far is a rotating script, but I want a manual change from a link (button, image, etc) instead of timeOut rotation. I am not sure what I need to do for the links to replace the timeout function to change the dynamic section.
