JavaScript - Iframe Parent/child Url Name
Dear Madam/Sir,
I would greatly appreciate any help. I am working on this site: http://www.pathology.ubc.ca/Path_UBC...Professor.html. The list of names on the right hand side is conencted to the iframe, left hand side. By clicking on individual name the eprofile is populated in the iframe. Everything works fine but what I would like to add is some kind of extention to the url so we can externaly link directly to each these profiles. Please let me know if this is something that can be done? Many thanks, Debbie Similar TutorialsI have used iframes for my site and found various javascripts so when a person clicks on say the audio page he http://www.krillmeed.com/index.html it takes them to the audio page but will load it into the index.html page. The problem is, especially with search engines, to point to that page, this is what the URL looks like to send someone to that page: http://www.krillmeed.com/?frame=0&sr...m%2Faudio.html which is not very clean at all, this is the javascript that i found that at least works: Child iframe script: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> (function(){ var qstr = '?frame=0&src=' + encodeURIComponent(location.href), lre = new RegExp('^' + location.protocol + '//' + location.hostname + '(()|(/)|(/index.html)|(/index.php))(()|(\\' + qstr + '))$'); if (!lre.test(parent.location.href)){ top.location.href = '/' + qstr; } })(); </script> Parent iframe Script: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> (function(){ function getQval(n) { if(typeof n !== 'string'){ return null; } var r = new RegExp('[?&;]' + n + '=([^&;#]*)'), m = location.search; return (m = r.exec(m))? unescape(m[1]) : null; } var f = getQval('frame'), s = getQval('src'); if(f && frames[f] && s && s.indexOf(location.protocol + '//' + location.hostname + '/') === 0){ frames[f].location.href = s; } })(); </script> Is there a "cleaner" way of doing this? This was an old code, i have yet to find a more modern one. Thank you in advance. After open a child window, I would like to keep parent window on focus. I tried self.focus(), set new window in blur() as well as setting the setInterval, none of them works in either Firefox or IE. I think this question relates to the opening window in tab rather than in new window. Actually, in Firefox, it was opened in tab and in IE it was opened in new window. After a parent checkbox has been selected and the user changes their mind and just unchecks the Parent checkbox I need to figure out how to automatically uncheck the child checkboxes as well.

I'm aware that you can write the variable to a hidden field and then get the field's value in the child window, but I'm looking for a cleaner (all JS preferable) way of doing this. Something like this, but I believe this is an out-dated solution: Code: var str = window.opener.str; alert(str); Any solutions? Hello all, I have a page which has a form and also one iframe in the same. there is a button on the parent form. when the button is clicked, i am submitting the iframe and parent both. forms are getting submitted. but when i do print_r for iframe values, it is blank below is the code Parent page: Code: <? print "<pre>"; print_r($_POST); print "</pre>"; ?> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> New Document </TITLE> <META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="EditPlus"> <META NAME="Author" CONTENT=""> <META NAME="Keywords" CONTENT=""> <META NAME="Description" CONTENT=""> </HEAD> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> <!-- function validate(){ document.getElementById('mainform').submit(); window.frames['iframe1'].document.forms[0].submit(); } //--> </SCRIPT> <BODY> <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="" name='mainform' id='mainform'> <TABLE> <TR> <TD>Name</TD> <TD><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Name_VC"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD>Address</TD> <TD><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Address_VC"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD colspan=2><INPUT TYPE="button" name="proceed" value="Save" onClick="validate();"></TD> </TR> </TABLE> </FORM> <iframe src="test1.php" id='iframe1'></iframe> </BODY> </HTML> iframe page : test1.php Code: <? print "<pre>"; print_r($POST); print "</pre>"; ?> <form name='mainform2' id='mainform2' method='post' action=''> Roll number : <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Rollnum" value=''> Age: <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Age_IN" value=''> </form> Please tell me what is my mistake or how can i achieve values of all 4 fields Million thanks Hi, I have a small problem with a page I'm working on. I have an anchor tag inside a table that has a mouseover event that updates a contextual help box. I need to add a similar mouseover event to the anchor tag that does the same thing, but updates the help box with different text. The problem I have is that when the mouse is over the table, no matter if I move the mouse over the anchor, the help text only displays the message that is passed from the table's mouseover function call. I think the solution *may* be something to do with event bubbling, but I'm not exactly sure how to implement it. The code I'm dealing with is below: The code below is PHP. The table mouseover (for reference): Code: echo "<table class='cleanTable' width='100%' style='margin-top: 5px'"; echo " onMouseOver=\"updateHelpText('Message 1.');\" onMouseOut='clearHelpText();'>"; echo "<tr><th> </th><th> </th><th>First Name</th><th>Surname</th><th>Last Login</th></tr>"; The anchor mouseover: Code: echo "<tr class='cleanrow'><td><a href='newMember.php'><img border='0' src='images/icon_add.gif'></a></td><td></td>"; echo "<td colspan='3'><a class='workbenchLink' href='newMember.php' onMouseOver=\"updateHelpText('Message 2');\" onMouseOut='clearHelpText();'>Invite a new colleague...</a></td></tr>"; echo "</table>"; The function (javascript): Code: function updateHelpText(newText) { document.getElementById("helpBox").innerHTML = "<h4> " + newText + "</h4>"; } Any help with this would be great, thanks.

It is constrained to a very small width and IE does not auto expand on click. I wrote a simple javascript to handle this but I run into two problems. The onmouseout function is fired when I click into a child node, and the onmousedown of the <option> tags doesn't work in IE. The code works fine in all other browsers. var wid; var campaign_i = 0; function campaignWidget_capture(myID){ wid=document.getElementById(myID).style.width; campaign_i++; } function campaignWidget_SubDes(myID,state){ if(state==0){ if(campaign_i==0) campaignWidget_capture(myID); document.getElementById(myID).style.width="auto"; }else document.getElementById(myID).style.width=wid; } onmouseout="campaignWidget_SubDes(id,1)" This is in the select tag. onmousedown="campaignWidget_SubDes(id,0)" This is in the select tag onmousedown="campaignWidget_SubDes('campaignWidget_Sub_Designation',1)" This is in the option tag.

Hello to all and thanks in advance for my help. I know this has been posted in different places on the web but I have found no solid solution. Here is my problem: I have an iframe the loads up a page on a remote server (out of my hands) and when I send certain information to it, the page redirects my entire site to their 404 page. I need to prevent this from happening so I engaged in much research and found this... temporary fix: Code: <script> // No redirection! var prevent_bust = 0 window.onbeforeunload = function() { prevent_bust++ } setInterval(function() { if (prevent_bust > 0) { prevent_bust -= 2 window.top.location = 'http://www.mysite.com/my404.html' } }, 1) </script> What this code does, is that every time the unload of a page happens, it will redirect me to my404.html and this does solve the problem of the iframe trying to redirect my entire site but anytime a user tried to go to a new website by typing it in the address bar, they are redirected to my404.html. Is there another solution for me so that the page within the iframe cannot redirect the parent page? I'm working on a upload script that uses javascript, and a hidden iframe to upload the files. It all works up until the iframe finishes and needs to send the javascript function call back to the parent page, nothing happens, when it should hide the upload progress bar. I've searched and searched for the awnser, along with trying different alternative to window.top.window, such as window.top, parent, and parent.document and so far nothing has worked, I've even tried the onLoad on the iframe with no success. Parent Page function: Code: function stopUpload(success, ups, file) { var result = ''; var uploaded = '0'; if (success == 1) { result = '<span class="msg">The file was uploaded successfully!<\/span><br>'; uploaded = uploaded ++; if (uploaded == document.getElementById('numflowers').value) { document.getElementById(finish).style.display = 'block'; } } else if (success == 2) { result = '<span class="msg">There was an error during file upload! The file has a size of 0<\/span><br> File: <input name="ufile[]" id="ufile[]" type="file" size="30"> <input type="submit" name="submitBtn" value="Upload">'; } else if (success == 3) { result = '<span class="msg"> We only allow .png, .jpg, .gif, .zip, .rar, and .7z files to be uploaded. If you think we should allow other please make a suggestion on the forums.<\/span><br> File: <input name="ufile[]" id="ufile[]" type="file" size="30"> <input type="submit" name="submitBtn" value="Upload">'; } var uploadp = "upload_process" + ups; var uploadf = "upload_form" + ups; document.getElementById('uploadp').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('uploadf').innerHTML = 'result'; document.getElementById('uploadf').style.display = 'block'; } Function call inside iframe (example) Code: window.top.window.stopUpload(3, 1, test.txt) Thanks for the help. Sorry my bad, but im stuck again. I have tried to search in hours, but i cant find the answer. I think you the pro coders will see the code directly. I have an webbpage, and in the middle of it there is an iframe to a php site. So i have used this code, so after some seconds the iframe will send the guest to another page. <meta http-equiv="refresh" traget="_top" content="5 url=http://mypage.com"/> But the thing is that i want the WHOLE page to reload, and go to that page after 5 seconds (we can say). With that code, only the iframe are going to another page. Is it possible to make the whole page send the user after some seconds, to another page and not only the iframe? I have created and opened a child window called "checkwin" and have written some data to it. If the data is valid, I want the user to click on the 'CONFIRM' button on the child window, at which time I want the "submit()" function for the form on the parent window to be executed. If the data is invalid the user clicks on 'MODIFY' and I want focus to return to a field on the parent form. However, when I click on the "CONFIRM" or "MODIFY" buttons on the child window, nothing happens. Here is the code: Code: checkwin.document.write("</td></tr><tr><td align='right'><input type='button' value='CONFIRM' onclick='opener.document.personnel_form.submit()'></td><td></td><td><input type='button' value='MODIFY' onclick='opener.document.personnel_form.first_name.focus()'></td></tr></table>") Hi All, I need to show/focus the parent window which is in back when click a link from child window in Chrome.This problem is in Chrome browser only. We have used the below code self.blur(); Window.opener.focus(); But this is not working in Google Chrome. Please suggest me some workaround to achieve this.

Join Date Feb 2009 Posts 28,311 Thanks 82 Thanked 4,754 Times in 4,716 Posts Window is not defined. window is. JavaScript (and the DOM) is case sensitive. You must pay attention to upper/lower case spelling, carefully. By the way, you shouldn't need the blur() call. If you focus on some window (any window) then any other focus should be lost. After following the instructions from the answer below: http://bytes.com/topic/javascript/an...arent-document I was able to have the child window perform the function defined in the parent window. The function was to only have an alert window pop up as the child page was loading. I easily modified this to my intention which was to have a parent function performed when the child window was clicked. Using the body tag: Code: <body onclick="parent.FUNCTION NAME HERE()"> I first change the method in which the function would be triggered, all went well there. then I tried to change which function would be triggered. (Basically use the function I wanted to happen on click of the child window rather then the function from the test). Once I did this switch, nothing happens. The site this is being used on is: http://tylerpanesar.ca/ What I want is when the menu bar is open in the parent window, the user chooses a link and the menu closes and goes to that link in the child window. This already works. However if the user opens the menu bar and then changes there mind and continues with the page the are currently on (clicks any content in the child window), the menu stays open. Currently the menu "hides" only when you choose one of the menu items, but it does not "hide" when you CLICK on child document. If you could figure out how to get it to "hide" on a "mouse out" that would be the better option. I attempted this method however i could only get it to "toggle" the menu on "mouse out". This method does however create an annoying flicker when you hover over the menu items (as it is toggling the open menu command I guess). If I had it "hide" the menu on "mouse out" it would "hide" as soon as you moved off of the main button. The viewer doesn't even have a chance to click a link. or at least that is what happens when I did it. You may have a better method to achieve this. The script that tells it to hide on click is within a jQuery function: Code: menua .click( function(){ menu.hide(); the code I used for the mouseout toggle was: Code: menu .mouseout( function(){ menu.toggle(); Here is the script that I am currently using for the menu to open and the "click" hide feature. This menu feature comes from the following help: http://www.bennadel.com/blog/1740-Bu...-FaceBook-.htm Code: <script type="text/javascript"> jQuery(function( $ ){ var menuRoot = $( "#menu-root" ); var menu = $( "#menu" ); var menua = $( "#menu a" ); // Hook up menu root click event. menuRoot .attr( "href", "javascript:void( 0 )" ) .click( function(){ // Toggle the menu display. menu.toggle(); // Blur the link to remove focus. menuRoot.blur(); // Cancel event (and its bubbling). return( false ); } ) ; menua .click( function(){ // Toggle the menu display. menu.hide(); } ) ; // Hook up a click handler on the document so that // we can hide the menu if it is not the target of // the mouse click. $( document ).click( function( event ){ // Check to see if this came from the menu. if ( menu.is( ":visible" ) && !$( event.target ).closest( "#menu" ).size() ){ // The click came outside the menu, so // close the menu. menu.hide(); } } ); }); </script> I've tried adding the click to "hide" menu feature to the child document but there is now menu in that document for it to "hide". What I was trying to was have the child document execute a function from the parent document and have that function executed IN the parent document. I've tried the technique from the link in my very first post but I believe it only calls the function from the parent and executes it IN the child. Which does not work for me as the menu is not in the child. There should be a way to make the child execute a function FOR the parent. I apologize for this very wordy post, but I am extremely frustrated with this now as I have been trying to get this to work for a few weeks now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Tyler hi there. i have a classic asp page that is using the winhttprequest object to get the contents of website from a different server. Then i modify the html i get to suit my needs.. save it to a file, and then finally, i display this stuff in an IFRAME. (i wrapped a div tag around the iframe so technically, i'm doing something like: "divtabframe.innerHTML = '<IFRAME SRC='myserver/somepage.html'></IFRAME>) My problem is that when i refresh the main page, i want the iframe to also display the latest data. It does get the latest data from the external site and its saved in "somepage.html". But the iframe isn't updated unless i explicitly right-click inside the frame and manually select refresh. I have added a <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="30"> line to make it auto refresh on it's own. But the users find it annoying that the page refreshes while they're reading it. It would be ideal if when they refresh the main page, the iframe gets updated too. or i could create a new button too... as long as both pages are updated i did find this solution on a different website: document.getElementById(FrameID).contentDocument.location.reload(true); My page inside the iframe is ultimately "local" so it sounds like the above code should work, but i'm not sure what event would be best to trigger this javascript... and i still need a way to refresh the main page too. thanks. What line of javascript can I use to submit a form that's inside an iFrame? Here are a couple of failed attempts: Code: document.getElementById('captcha_iframe').forms['reserve_booth_space'].submit(); window.frames['captcha_iframe'].forms['reserve_booth_space'].submit(); |
