HTML - Iframe Height And Top Issue
Hi All,
I have an iframe in my page. I change its height from a button inside the iframe using javascript. for example: parent.document.getElementById('iframe').style.height="100px"; The problem is that if the iframe height was 500px for example, and I changed it to 100px then the whole iframe is shrink down. I mean that the 100px are the top 100px but they are appear in the button of the iframe and there are 400px empty at the beginning. Any Idea how to change it? Thanks in advance Similar TutorialsI'm having a bit of trouble with an iframe. I'm wanting my iframe to automatically adjust to the height of whatever page loads into it. Is that possible? My code is as follows: HTML Code: <iframe src="test.html" name="_blank" width="656" height="100%"></iframe> I'm building all the page that should load in the iframe to be the proper width, but I was hoping to make the iframe automatically adjust to the height. Any help is greatly appreciated. Please help me understand! I'm trying to create a page that has several static height table rows and one row that has an iframe that I want to expand to fill the height of the browser window. Here is a link to the test page: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9536793/testWITHframe.html Here is the CSS used by the page: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9536793/test.css Here is the page loaded into the iframe of the main page: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9536793/testblankframe.html So, there are three rows at the top (Title, Menu, and Button rows). At the bottom are two rows (Bottom row and Copyright row). In the middle is the row that contains the iframe that I want to fill the page height. It works correctly in Firefox 4 and Chrome. However, in IE 9 (standards mode), the frame is too tall, so a scroll bar is added to the page and the bottom area is pushed off the end of the window. Bah IE!! If I take off the DOCTYPE, or use an older DOCTYPE, IE goes into Quirks mode, and then the page appears correctly (sort of). However, I'm trying to use HTML 5 rules, so I want to just use DOCTYPE html. I also need IE in Standards mode so that a charting tool that I am trying to use wiill work right. I just can't get all of the technologies to play together! Anyway, I know iframe are sometimes frowned upon, but we use a page layed out like this and then load various pages into the iframe based on what the user selects in the menu. I don't particularly like it either, but don't know a good alternative. (I'm open to suggestions for that as well). Any assistance with getting the height to fill the page (and no more) that will work in all IE (8 and 9 standards mode), FF, and Chrome would be appreciated. Thanks. Hi, I am using an iframe in my website, and I don't know how I am supposed to get the height to be correct. The problem is, I am treating the iframe like a little portal to another site. So when the user clicks a link on the page that is in the iframe, the page in the iframe changes and so does its height. I cant set a fixed height obviously, and I tried using 100% but that didn't work either. Does anyone know what I can do? Thanks! Is it possible to have an ifram at 100% height? I am embedding an iframe into my template so that I can have a forum within the template. Though the forum pages height changes and I wanted to set the iframe to 100% so that it will auto adjust. When I changed it to 100% it didn't work and it looks to be about 20 pixels high. Thanks, Nick I am using an iframe to insert some common text/links in several pages. I want the 'src' to take up just as much space (vertically) as it needs, without using scrollbars. My problem is that as time goes on, I may add, or remove things from the 'src'. I don't want to have to go back to the individual pages that have the iframe tag and re-adjust the height="xxx" bit. Is there a way to do this ? Sorry, but I have another problem :/ http://cedarcreekyouth.org/photos.html iFrame on that page will not work size properly? The Situation: I'm integrating a forum into my website with an Iframe. I want it to look good and scrollbars just don't cut it. I was hoping to find a script that could decide the height of the iframe base on the contents of the contents. In short, I want the iframes height to change according to the forum. The Problem: I found a lot of scripts that accomplished this, but with one major problem in all of them. When you go to a link within the Iframe the height stays the same. So if the original page is short and the page its linked to is longer, it cuts off. The Site The Explanation: As you can see the script works nicely on the first page, but if you go to the post in the "Announcements" section the height stays the same and the post is cut off. Does anyone know of a dynamic iframe height script capable of resizing again every time a page is loaded inside the iframe? I have a basic horizontal iframe with a persistent navigation header and a content page below which is the target for the navigation. How do you set the height of the content frame to scroll if necessary depending on the amount of content on the page? The content pages that are swapped in/out and have varying heights. I would like the page height overall to include all content. Setting scrolling to "yes" in the <iframe> tag forces the content (framed) page height to about 100px(?), leaving a lot of dead space in the browser window below. Ideally the whole page would scroll as one, but I would settle for scrolling just the content (framed) page. Any help would be appreciated. Thx Hey. I am using iframe inside my site, but i have to choose width and height myself.. when i set it to auto, i still have to scroll. Heres my site: http://habbxtra.net HTML Code: <iframe src="hjem_frame.php" width="450px" height="1200px" name="mainframe" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"</iframe> Ive tried changing height to auto and not setting a height at all, and setting the height to 100%, but when i change to 100% in width it wont show, and when i chane haight to 100% it doesnt do anything, just the same as width auto. Thanks for any reply ! Hi guys, First of all I'm a newbie at web coding and such... Using dreamweaver I managed to create a simple web design, Exactly as I wanted it. Now my only problem lies with the table and the iframe within it, Is it possible for the table to depend on the iframe's height and increase accordingly? (auto increase height and fill the whole frame page without scrolling inside the frame) Here is the code, maybe I did something wrong... <style type="text/css"> body { margin-top: 0px; } </style> <body bgcolor="#c7c7c7"><table width="1020" height="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <th width="20" height="100%" rowspan="3" scope="col"><img src="bgleft3.jpg" width="20" height="100%" /></th> <th width="980" height="277" background="Mainbanner.jpg" scope="col"></th> <th width="20" height="100%" rowspan="3" scope="col"><img src="bgright3.jpg" width="20" height="100%" /></th> </tr> <tr> <th width="980" height="51" background="Barnew.jpg" scope="col"></th> </tr> <tr> <td width="980" height="100%" bgcolor="#3e5d75"><iframe src="frame_new.html" width="100%" height="100%" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe> </td> </tr> <tr> <th width="20" height="46" background="BottomLeft.jpg" scope="col"></th> <th width="980" height="46" background="BottomNew.jpg" scope="col"></th> <th width="20" height="46" background="BottomRight.jpg" scope="col"></th> </tr> </table> </body> Thanks in advance. (Already tried google and searched the forums, didnt find anything) Hello. I have a flash header on my page with links. When each link is pressed, the appropriate .html page is loaded into the iframe, which i have defined with this code: Code: <iframe name = "mainframe" src="home.html" width="746" height="800" frameborder="0" align="middle"> The problem is, the different pages that will be loaded into 'mainframe' have different heights, and i would like the iframe to adjust to these heights without adding scrolling bars. How would I do this? I don't know if this question is posted somewhere, but I can't seem to find the answer I'm looking for. I'm currently using iframe for my posting entries, and I can't figure out the script for auto height. I'm tired of setting the height by hand, every time my entries starts to stretch. Now regarding the width, would that be possible too? if not, I'm not too concerned. Most important is the height. If anyone have the answers to this please reply. Thanks in advance! (: Hello there, I am pretty new to web programming. I am currently having problem with Iframe's height. here's what happen. I have a page with 2 Div. First div is the header with menu. The 2nd Div Contains 2 Iframes. The first Iframe is my title bar location, and the 2nd iframe is my content location. The menu and title bar location is fine. When I click on something from the menu bar, it changes both the title bar and the content page. I did it like this because I don't want my title bar to scroll up when my content page is longer. So here's my problem: for the 2nd Iframe which contain my content, I couldn't set the height properly so it will fill and extend to the bottom of the screen when resolution is high. Also i don't want a scroll bar to the whole website, but only to the 2nd iframe. here's an example. I made a very simple version of what is exactly my problem. So is easier to read on the forum. index.html's code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body scroll="no"> <div id="apDiv1" scrolling="no"> <p>This is a test.</p> <p>This is a test.</p> <p>This is a test.</p> <p>This is a test.</p> <p>This is a test.</p> <p>This is a test.</p> </div> <div id="apDiv2" scrolling="no"> <iframe src="123.html" style="position:absolute; width:780px; height:35px; top:240px;" scrolling="no"> </iframe> <iframe src="abc.html" style="position:absolute; width:780px; height:100%; top:275px;" scrolling="yes"> </iframe> </div> </body> </html> 123.html's code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> 1234567 </body> </html> abc.html's code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> <p>TEST</p> </body> </html> Notice, I have a long TEST there. because i want only the iframe to scroll, but not the whole website. Anyone know a solution to this? OK so i have made this template and so far i like it but i have come accross a bit of an issue http://marlosweb.com/templates/test/contact.php OK so you see that little black bar on the left of the navigation? Well i want that to span the length of my page but 100% height wont work because CSS requires that the parent element has a fixed value. Does someone know how to cure this? Im working on a website for my city City of Crescent Springs And im having an issue with the upcomming events div. i cannot get it to stretch to the footer Any help? Hi again. I'm having an issue getting my form to show up correctly..or at all. The page comes up OK but where the form should be i get a page cannot be displayed. the iframe is at the bottom. Code: <body> <div id="templatemo_wrapper"> <div id="templatemo_left_column"> <div id="site_title"> <h1><a href="index.html" target="_parent"> </a></h1> </div><!-- end of site_title --> <div id="templatemo_sidebar"> <div class="service_section"> <h2>Services</h2> <ul class="service_list"> <li><a href="#">Seamless Rain Gutters</a></li> <li><a href="#">Soffit and Fascia</a></li> <li><a href="#">Helmet and Gutter Screen</a></li> <li><a href="#">Many Color Options</a></li> <li><a href="#">10 Year Guarantee</a></li> <li><a href="#">Free Estimates</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="news_section"> <h2>Grade "A" Gutters</h2> <div class="news_box"> <br />23 Central Ave. S. <br />N <br />Office: <br />Cell: </div> </div> </div> </div> <!-- end of left column --> <div id="templatemo_right_column"> <div id="templatemo_menu"> <ul> <li><a href="index.html" target="_parent">Home</a></li> <li><a href="index.html" target="_parent">Guarantee</a></li> <li><a href="index.html" target="_parent">News</a></li> <li><a href="index.html">Gallery</a></li> <li><a href="index.html" target="_parent">About Us</a></li> <li><a href="/estimate.html" target="_parent" class="current">Contact Us</a></li> </ul> </div> <!-- end of templatemo_menu --> <div id="templatemo_content_wrapper"> <div id="templatemo_content"> <h2>-Free Estimates-</h2> <iframe src='form/contactform.php' frameborder='0'width='100%' height='500'></iframe> </div> </div> Hi, First, please excuse me if this has been answered before. I wasn't able to find any similar posts that has a solution and thus I'm making this new thread. What I have is a simple table with two sections just like this: Code: <table> <tr> <td width='50%' valign='top'> Content goes here... </td> <td width='50%' valign='top'> Content 2 goes here... </td> </tr> </table> Inside those two sections I have a fieldset in each of them (yes, I know this might sound weird, but that's how I need it to be). The question is, how can I make the height of both <td> (or alternatively the fieldset value) to be equal, in a situation when the data is a dynamical one and I don't know its size initially. It looks ugly if one of the rows is longer than the other and I would like to justify them in some way. I tried setting height attribute but to no avail. Any thoughts how this can be achieved? Thank you in advance for your help! I have a simple 2 column 2 row table that looks like the code below. I want to expand cell 2's height without expanding cell 1's height. I need this to be dynamic due to different users seeing different heights in cell 2. Cell 3's height can change all it wants to...I just dont want cell 1's height to change!! <html> <head> <title>Height Issue</title> </head> <body> <table> <tr> <td width="100px" height="100px"style="background-color: ##00FF00">cell 1</td> <td rowspan="2" width ="100px" height="200px"style="background-color: #00FFFF">Cell 2</td> </tr> <tr> <td width ="100px"height="100px"style="background-color: #FFFF00">Cell 3</td> </table> </body> </html> Hi All... Was hoping for some help with an iFrame question. I'm a bit of a n00b with web design so please forgive me. I have: home.html - with an iframe containing products.html Withing products.html (in the iframe) I have a link which I want to link to a new page which also has a iframe. This I can do but I want the link to open the new page and a page within the new iframe of my choosing. I hope this makes sense to somebody... Any help would be greatly appreciated. Richard |
