I'm using offset values to find the x,y position of an iframe on an
html page. The code works in all browsers except in Mac explorer 5.x.
Does anybody have any ideas how to get around this?? Thanks. My code
is below, assuming myFrame is the iframe in question, offsetLeft is the
x coordinate, offsetTop is the y coordinate. For some reason,
offsetParent for the iframe on Mac Explorer is always undefined. Even
stranger, this is only the case for iframe elements. When dealing with
other elements in Mac Explorer 5.x, the code below works fine....
I want to do a simple animation where an image fades and expands at the same time. Works beautifully in chrome/safari etc but because of the IE opacity thing not IE. Can I use fadeIn() and get this to work at the same time as the animate()? or is there another solution?
I need to find what control is in some position given. I mean, if I give the values left: 200px and top 300px I need to know what control in the page is in that position, or if there is not any.
I want to determine the position of each link on a page. I need to know the browser window size, or at least screen resolution. I also need a position in pixels for each link. For example while browsing this page my screen resolution is 1680*1050 and the Blogs link in the menu is positioned at say (100, 120).Is there any consistent way to find this out in the major browsers?Note that the links are just plain links, they don't have the position attribute set in css or anything.I'm thinking about building a script that tracks user click behaviour and it would be tremendously helpful if I didn't need to input say "link Blogs is positioned in area N" to the tracking system.
Was wondering if it's possible to find the left position of a table cell if the cell is created dynamically.
I have a table with a single cell. When a button is clicked, I'd like to add another cell to it, give the cell a class style and then find the cell's left position. Right now I'm using doing this:
Ultimately, I'm looking to build navigation between article titles (h2 tags) where each title acts as an anchor link to the next title.How do I find the position of the next occurance of a tag, not necessarily adjacent, matching the current $(this) clicked item?
The mouse position tutorial has an example of how to find the click position within an element. How do you find the click position within the viewport?
I'm really not sure how to go about doing this, so any and all pointers are welcome. What I'd like to do is be able to find the position and width of a word that has been typed inside of a <textarea>, so that I might overlay some absolutely-positioned elements on top, and size them properly. I would really like to be able to do this in the most general case as possible (independent of fonts, font size, size of the textarea, etc.), but as stated any help is welcome.
I have a DIV with hegiht 500 px and overflow:scroll. I have 34000 A tags in it(each new line). Every A tag has its own ID. I want to scroll to these a tags so I need to know their position. How to find these?
Hi, i'm creating my own image gallery using jQuery, and there is a set of thumbnails at the bottom. The thumbnails have been put into an array, using jQuery, but what i am trying to do is to return the position of any clicked thumbnail in that array. i.e. when the 3rd thumbnail in the list is clicked, return 3, when the 5th thumbnail is clicked return 5 etc....
This in turn will dictate which item in another array (the main images array) will be displayed.
After retrieving a record from the database and displaying one of its text field in an input-type textbox, I click on a word and it'll store or show the current position of cursor in a variable. I have no success with IE's caretPos.
I need to find the position of an element on the page relative to the browser window. Its part of a popup calendar script (and no, they don't want to change it so please don't suggest jQuery date-picker etc) The script uses these functions [url]... to find the position of the anchor to pop up the calendar next to it.
Now the client wants to make the calendar fixed when the user scrolls so that it always stays on screen. The most graceful solution is using css position:fixed (I'm aware it doesn't work in IE6 - that's not a problem)
I've been using the getAnchorWindowPosition function to get the coordinates but the numbers its giving are wrong (to different degrees depending on the browser) It was only 200px out in the Y axis in Firefox but in IE7&8 its off the screen.
even the onPaste in the iframes body doesnt fire in IE!!!
I have had a good look around but no one seems to have an answer on this.
note I have successfully attached the onblur and onfocus events to this iframe in IE and firefox
It would be really handy as people are copying html into the iframes. I have a html cleaner firing when they submit but I want the text to be cleaned when/if they paste in.
I'm trying to find the position of an element with respect to the view port area. So, when the user scrolls the page down, I want to know the x and y positions of the element with respect to the viewing (view port) area.
The overall goal is to know exactly where on the element this user clicked.
I have an iframe with some javascipt that gets the mouse x and y position like this:
//inside the iframe's onmousemove call back funciton xMousePos = window.event.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft; yMousePos = window.event.clientY + document.body.scrollTop;
This gets the x and y position inside the iframe. But what I want is the x and y position of the parent window, not the screen like screenX. Is there any easy way to get parentX and parentY or to get the offset x and y of the iframe relitive to the parent from inside the iframe?
to be applied to an iframe? I tried changing "window" to the id but that failed me and I'm really just getting started with Javascript. I've spent the last hour and a half on Google but haven't found it.
Or, is there a better way to achieve what it is I'm trying to do? I just want to have my iframe automatically scroll to specific position on the webpage.
I am trying to figure out a way to position the content that comes up inside of an i-frame. I believe that Javascript is the way to go, but I'm very inexperience in coding JS and wanted to see if anyone could give some insight.
I would like to make the pages that appear inside my i-frame to hide the top 20 pixels; something like a negative margin. The idea is that I could put a banner there that will be invisible when the page in viewed in the i-frame, but will show up properly if a user views the page outside of the i-frame. Does anybody know if this is possible, or am I on the wrong track?
Dynamically, I create a container DIV with an iFrame inside. When the iFrame content page is loaded, I would like to determine the ID, name DIV object reference of the "container" DIV with an onload javascript function.
Is it possible? ...and if so, how would I do this.
how to automatically scroll the page inside an IFrame? I have an IFrame that has no scroll bars, but there's a bit of whitespace that I want to get rid of. Unfortunately, the page in question doesn't have an element in the right area with an ID that I can anchor to.
How can I position the game inside the I frame? I can do what ever I want with the iframe, but the content inside the frame won't position independently. I would like to position it absolutely inside the iframe. I just can't find the way. I just so you know this is a game I make in gamemaker and yoyo gave this code to zip and add the exe. I don't have a separate file for the game it appears to be part of the iframe.
