HTML - Scroll Iframe From Parent (+more)

I'm in the process of making a page where the menu/navigation is on the left, and to the right of it is the content area. I'm planning on using an iframe like I have in the past, so that the only place that reloads every time you click a menu option is the content area.

The thing is, for the first time this website will have more content than my others, in which case a scroll bar would appear for just the content iframe ... is there any way around having this scroll bar appear? I would rather the height of the iframe just continue to extend as far down as the actual content goes, then stop. This way, the only scrollbar that appears on the webpage is the main scroll bar on the side of the browser.

Is this possible with the iframe? if not, is there a better alternative??

please help!!

EDIT: Edit: Okay, so I found a script that actually works but now I have another tiny problem. This is the code I found that works: http://www.milonic.com/mfa/2005-Apri...djustment.html

But see on the javascript code it has a section that says "//extra height in px to add to iframe in FireFox 1.0+ browsers" ... this code actually does add extra unwanted space at the bottom of the iframe... extends it further than necessary. But I can't find the part where I can adjust/remove this? Could someone help me out with this??

Hello there..

I was searching on the forum for a little help to how I can change my scrollbar color inside my iframe, but I didnt rly find anything that helped, I only found solutions to: How to change scroll colors but that didnt have any effect inside my Iframe..

Ok try go to this site: http://www.sp34k.dk/Bluevis/index.htm

- Now try look to the left, you can see a scrollbar there, but what I wish, is to make it smaller, change its colors, or just do anything to make it "fits" inside the design.

I hope some of you guys could help me, I cross my fingers..

Kind regards

I have a set of web pages with a horiz nav bar across the top that has buttons that load various pages in the iframe target area on the lower 3/4 of the screen. We want the entire screen scrollable with one scrollbar as one solution, OR the entire iframe area scrollable with a single scroll bar as another possible solution, does not matter which. What we do not want is for the user to have two manipulate two scroll bars (the iframe one and the outside one) in order to view the bottom of the iframe area. Thanks in advance, Ron E.

i have spent about 45min reading through alot of Iframe related threads but none of them have helped my problem.

I have a website with iframes, on my index page i am trying to put an iframe into the content box so when you click the links up top it will load them without refreshing the whole page.

So thats fine i put in my iframe code like this

<iframe name="homeframe" width="780" height="250" border="0" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" padding="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="auto"src="homeframe.html">
</iframe>

And on the html document im trying to put into it "homeframe.html" it open up but it scrolls horizontally not vertically and all the writing goes onto 1 line horizontally. The width of my content box is 780px so i made the table in the homeframe.html document 780 so it wouldnt have the bar but it does.

im stumped. thanks in advance.

I've set up a test site for a project where I have a scrollable table within an iFrame.

Techincally, its an iFrame within an iFrame which gets you to a scrollable table I also added an auto-scroll with anchor-links.

Everything finally works, but I really want to remove the horizontal-scroll bar that shows up, while keeping the vertical-scroll bar.

(Upon testing, I found without the vertical-scroll bar, the anchor-links and auto-scroll don't work correctly.)

here's the link to the test site: http://www.thegrandamerican.com/

here's the line of code I think is the correct place to make corrections:
<iframe id="myiframe" name="myiframe" src="oprah june 09_news.htm" width="900" height="475" scrolling="yes" overflow-y: scroll></iframe>

The hierarchy works as follows:
index.htm > spotlight_news.htm > oprah june 09_news.htm

The reason for all the iframes is to have elements on the higher pages that will stay in place, such as a music player and dynamic menu bar.

other notes and associated files (for the auto scroll) a
smooth-src-comments.js
smooth.pack.js

Ive been looking EVERYWHERE for a site with a code for a scroll box with a trasparent scroll bar, Ive seen the code where I can edit the size of the box as well as the color of the box itself and I know how to do THAT. how do I make it where the code displays the scroll code as well so I can fully customize it? it seems that its always hidden..

hi,

i've a very simple html page, where i have an iframe. The problem is that i want to add some text below the iframe. however, my text keeps showing up on the right hand side of the iframe. i've looked at the tutorials discussing the tags available for iframe, but surprisingly, none seem to relevant to this.

Code:

<html>
<body>

<table border="0" cellspacing="10">
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="left">
<td valign="top">
<iframe src="mySource.jsp" height="700" width="600" frameborder="0" scrolling="auto"></iframe>
</td>    
</table>

This should be displayed below the iframe but actually gets displayed on the right
</body>
</html>

any help / guidance in this will be much appreciated. thanks in advance!

I have 2 IFrames on a page. I am going to end up with a long list of shows to catch-up on.
Is there a way I can embed an IFrame with the list, and when you click on a show, you it will change the Playing Show

http://tiny.cc/catchup <---The page I am referring to.

Now here is my problem. I'm not familiar with other laguages then html and a little bit of javascript and I wanted to make a site for me and my brothers photography company. I currently using dreamweaver and have figured out the way I want to make this site. I tried using ordinary frames, but I want the website to be aligned in the middle and I could make that happen.

That is why I went into iframes and a regular table on the index page. My problem now is that I have several iFrames and I want a link from one to open in another.

http://www.trans4mind.com/personal_d...e/iframes3.htm

here is a link for this to happen, and the simple solution is to name the frame and then target the link. but I have tried that and when the link is from one iframe to another it won't work. If the link is on the index page and target the iframe then it works. Do you have any idea why this happens? I know it's possible since the link above does it.

Hi!
I've been cracking my head trying to solve this:

How can I insert a iframe [i.e. 300x200px] inside of another iframe [i.e. 700x500px] and pull different web content n each one?

kind of concentric iframes or like a 'Donut iframe'

The following code works fine in any version of Internet Explorer, but sadly not Firefox. SetPrompt is just a javascript method from my frame called fraMap that sets the text of a textbox. Can someone please tell me how to accomplish this in Firefox? I have tried to search the forums and used examples but nothing I have found has worked, thanks for any advice!

Code:

parent.fraMap.SetPrompt("Click Two Diagonal Points To Set Zoom Area");

EDIT: Sorry, found the answer. No need to give me a solution.

I've decided to create a photo album in HTML (and Flash and CSS) using a nifty little Flash thing called SimpleViewer. However, I want multiple galleries, each within their own folder within the main photo gallery parent folder. How can I link something from one HTML file in a gallery's folder to the parent folder and then into another HTML file in another gallery's folder? Or if there's a way, directly to the other gallery's HTML file?

Note I'm keeping this gallery offline for now, I'm only using it to show family and friends and for myself as it's much less cumbersome than using software or the standard Windows XP folder structure.

Sorry if this is confusing, please say so if it is. Thanks in advance for all help, it's really appreciated.
