JavaScript - Redirecting External Links To Dynamic Iframe
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, I was not successful at adapting their solutions to my needs. Gentlemen, I need your help 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: Code: <script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function calcHeight()
{
//find the height of the internal page
var the_height=
document.getElementById('child').contentWindow.
document.body.scrollHeight;
//change the height of the iframe
document.getElementById('child').height=
the_height;
}
//-->
</script>
and the call Code: <iframe src="/main/index.php" width="100%" onLoad="calcHeight();" height="1" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" id="child"> This what I have going on: - index.html => contains some content and the iframe id="child" - childpage1[...N].php => several PHP pages which I do not want to show up outside of the parent "index.html". These pages use clean URLs from CMS such as "http://mydomain.com/pages/this-is-a-child-page/" Users might click on external links from search engines, for instance, about an specific page such as "http://mydomain.com/pages/this-is-child-page-7/" which obviously would load the page "orphaned", outside "index.html" and that is exactly what I am trying to avoid. Based on what I have researched so far, the best way (please, correct me if I'm wrong) to deal with this would be implementing a test condition on the header of the PHP child pages to verify if they are on "top" or not (if they are already inside the "parent" object "index.html"). If FALSE, the page would load normally, if TRUE, a variable should be created to store the URL of the requested page and passed through the link to the page "index.html" which would be immediately called. In "index.html" there would be a script to collect the variable sent through the link (something like "http://mydomain.com/?var=http://mydomain.com/pages/this-is-child-page-7/") and break the text string apart, store a portion of PATHNAME (in this case, "/pages/this-is-child-page-7/) and use it to replace the current SRC of iframe id="child". Probably, there would have to be another testing function in this script to compare the variable passed from the "orphaned" PHP page against the current value of SRC in iframe id="child" to determine if any action is actually required. 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://mydomain.com". 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. As you can tell, I have an idea of what needs to be done but not a clue on how to get it done. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Similar TutorialsI have two pages A and B. I have a link in the page A. I have two iframes in the page B. In practice, the link in the page A must open the page B and the link's href must open in the second iframe of the page B. Is there any script that does this? Hi, I have an external JS file with an array of menu links called (menu.js). The code is shown below: Code: <script>
var menuItem = new Array();
menuItem[0]="index.html";
menuItem[1]="welcome_home/index.html";
menuItem[2]="key_resources/index.html";
menuItem[3]="deployment_assistance/index.html";
menuItem[4]="benefits/index.html";
menuItem[5]="services/index.html";

</script>
I have called the javascript in my websites main page (index.html), but it does not work. The html code is shown below: Code: <script type ="text/javascript" src="menu.js"></script> <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="Page(0);">Home</a> <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="Page(1);">Welcome Home</a> <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="Page(2);">Key Resources</a> The javascript for the array of menu links works when it is inserted directly within the html file, but when it remains external and is called in index.html it does not work. I am not sure why this is the case. Could anyone give some pointers? Thanks, -Mike I need help turning the following inline code: Code: <a href="http://www.bing.com/" name="bing" onclick="return !window.open(this.href)">Bing</a><br> <a href="http://www.lycos.com/" name="lycos" onclick="return !window.open(this.href)">Lycos</a><br> <a href="http://www.dogpile.com/" name="dogpile" onclick="return !window.open(this.href)">DogPile</a><br> into an external javascript function that will do the same thing (open all links in a new window individually if javascript is enabled, without destroying links in html for if javascript is not enabled). Any smarties out there have any good suggestions? Hello. 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="httproboards.com/myforums" and the rel="nofollow" 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 rel="nofollow" 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 have also been trying things like javascript:void(document.iframe1.getElementsByTag("a")[5].rel="nofollow" target="iframe1") but i have had no luck so far in changing the target without the aid of firebug. Here is the code that needs to be changed. the rel="nofollow" target="_top" needs to be altered somehow to rel="nofollow" target="iframe1" as soon as the frame has finished loading the messageboards. Code: <p><font size="2"> Welcome Guest. Please <a href="/index.cgi?action=login" rel="nofollow" target="_top">Login</a> or <a href="/index.cgi?action=register" rel="nofollow" target="_top">Register</a>.<br/>Nov 19, 2010, 7:23pm </font><br /></p> Heres a screenshot that may help, as you can see I have easily changed the target of the link to="iframe1" using firebug, but I need to hardcode a script in my website that does this automatically after the iframe has loaded the forums page. http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/7264/26796014.jpg Thanks to for any help. I'm kind of new to javascript so forgive me for my ignorance. Is their anyway to track right mouse click within an iframe that is linked to an external site (i.e. www.nbc.com)? I'm trying to see if I can have a alert window say "This is an image" when i right click on an image within the iframe. Hey guys. Is there any any ANY way to read highlighted text of in an iframe that is displaying an external server / site? Say you select some text in the iframe and click a button outside of the iframe that prints the selected text to a textbox? Really really would love to do this or any ANY workaround. This really sucks that its a security measure by default that doesn't allow this!! Ugh! Hello, First time on the forum and I am admittedly a complete noob, so forgive me for any grievous misconceptions. I am a teacher trying to create a bulletin board on my website where students, teachers, and parents can post messages. I am trying to use the site linoit.com I am trying to embed that site on my website using an iframe url: http://www.capretto.net/stickyboard.shtml My problem is that when you go to the message board on my site it asks your for a username and password to login to access my message board from linoit. I was hoping there is a scripts or other trick that will auto fill the username and password when the page loads so that the message board opens automatically. Not too worried about privacy, but I could distribute the username and password to all interested parents, teachers, etc. but in my experience one more step between students and the information they need can be the difference between them not receiving the info. I'd be happy to give any contributors credit on my site for their coding help. Thanks in advance. I hope you will forgive the ineptitude of this question, but I'm starting from a severely beginner's level! In my website, I want each button clicked on the home page to define a variable URL that determines which 'default' page is navigated to first when people visit the Gallery section. i.e. If the "About Racing" link is clicked, then when the Gallery section fires up, the first page/picture seen is the Racing Car pic page. I am sure this is possible, but haven't managed to work out quite how to do it.... Any help will be very gratefully received! Hi, I wonder if the following is coded correctly: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Sample Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="container"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var url = "http://www.example.com/";
var content = "<iframe width='800' height='600' frameborder='0' src='" + url + "'><\/iframe>";
document.getElementById("container").innerHTML = content;
</script>
</body>

Many thanks in advance! Mike Hey. I've been trying to get this page working with dynamically loaded iframe sources passed by URL, but I can't seem to get it working. Here's the relavent code: Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function delineate(str) {
URL = str.indexOf("=") + 1;
return(str.substring(URL))
}
</script>
Then there's a form/submit button that simply return the name of a type of item, for example "german" or "french" Using the form attributes method="link" and action="pageURL.html", where pageURL is the page that all of this is on. Code: <form name="hack"><input type="hidden" name="selector" /></form> <script language="javascript"> var url=window.location; document.hack.selector.value=url; var url_select=document.hack.selector.value; var selectedURL="../types/" +delineate(url_select) +".html"; document.write (selectedURL); frames['middleframe'].location.href=selectedURL; </script> <iframe id="middleframe" name="middleframe" src="../types/default.html" width="100%" scrolling="auto" height="1000" frameborder="0" style="display: inline;" /> I used the hidden form to change the url to text - advice from another website. I'm sure there are better ways to do it, but I'll explore them as soon as this thing actually works.. The types are in a subfolder named types, as shown. The document.write was placed in as a debug helper, and it displays the proper file location of whatever I select with the combo box, but the iframe doesn't change it's src to the selected page! I've tired the last line of the last <script> with several different methods, none of them producing any effect whatsoever. What am I doing incorrectly? Any help? Thanks. Hi I am attempting to integrate two dynamic applications. I have successfully created an iFrame in app A that serves the dynamic pages of app B. This enables me to preserve the site theme of app A. Most of app B's pages successfully display inside the app A iFrame. The problem is, when application B displays a page (inside app A's iFrame parent) clicking on a link inside that page opens that page in another iFrame (child) and I can't see what could be wrong... fresh pair of eyes would be good.... Code: <iframe id="listframe" name=target src="http://www.mysite.com/dynamicpages/"
width="580" height="850" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" >
</iframe>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function () {
var q = (document.location.search);
document.getElementById('listframe').src += q;
}
</script>
Hi all! Im trying to work out a way of entering the contents of a div (which changes regularly) into a form field when it is focused on. The issue is that the div containing the text value is in an iframe of a php file (gallery.php). The div (#lbBottom) text contents that I need to use is the caption of the current photo open with a light-box style jquery plugin (slimbox). The gallery is formed using the php and needs to be in an iframe to align the lightbox correctly. #lbBottom is generated by title=\"Code: $alttag1\" and give a result of Code: +the current photo number. Ideally it is just the photo number (last 2 characters) that I need but the contents of the div will do! Would appreciate any help or advice anyone can give loads! As you will see with the mywrite function, im getting a bit tangled!

I need to create mouseover events for each of the links (just an alert message for now.) I have tried this a few ways, but for each one the mouseover event fires for each link before anything else is loaded on the page, and when the page is loaded, no link is displayed. Here are the two ways I've tried: Code:
var cell1 = document.createElement("TD");
cell1.innerHTML = '<A HREF= ' + url + 'onMouseOver="' + alert("my alert box"); + '"> my page </A>';
Code: cell1.innerHTML = '<A HREF= "' + url + '"> my page </A>';
cell1.onMouseOver = alert('alert');
I have also tried many variations of these including: Code: cell1.innerHTML = '<A HREF= "' + url + '"> my page </A>';
cell1.onMouseOver = function(){alert('alert');};
Code:
var cell1 = document.createElement("TD");
cell1.innerHTML = '<A HREF= " ' + url + ' " onMouseOver=" alert("my alert box"); "> my page </A>';
But they all yield the same result, so any help would be much appreciated! Hello all, I am using an editable iframe to change the style of the text as a person enters text depending on what they type in. Sometimes the text needs to be a link, and while inserting a link works, I can't click on it. I was wondering if anyone knows how to get links in an editable iframe to click through. I've researched this for a while now without getting anywhere. Right now I'm guessing that I need to somehow find out if the user is hovering over a link and turn "designMode" off for that section of text, or the whole iframe, I'm not completely sure. Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated! Hi all, Edit: Got it. I saved that source page and investigated closely and I realized that there's "Cookie plugin" script, which is not mentioned to add(?), in that tutorial I've been trying to implement the method given at http://dev.akabillposters.com/dom-js...-links-jquery/, but can't make it work. Nothing happens when I click the check box. I'm not a jquery expert, though tried some alerts statements to trace the issue, with no luck. Can anyone see what I'm missing? [link removed] Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Hi, I hav linked external js (ext1.js) to my app.html page. Now in the ext1.js, I have a function like [CODE] function onwindowload(){ //Access HTML element and append external js 2 (ext2.js) here }[CODE] //Access HTML element and append external js 2 (ext2.js) here--->I donno how to add external JS here. Even if i add the external JS here, the JS uses document.write fn. which replaces entire page. Please suggest a solution Hi All, i know how to create a dynamic form or DIv ..but what i do not know is how to create a dynamic form/ or div into a previous dynamic one.. i need basically to see 5 dynamic forms / DIV in cascade where each one trigger the one coming after.. For what i need that : i have my user inserting information on the level 1. let say Copagny info 2- then he will be asked if he wants to add a sub level information ( subform) for that compagny or even many subforms at the same level .. and so on... 3- those sub level ( subforms ) can also call their respective subforms.. Any idea how to design this ? thanks I have this code and for some reason my webpage isn't redirecting me to the other webpages this is what I got[CODE]
Hey all, Does anyone know if there is an effective way to redirect is JS is off? I was thinking of something like Code: <noscript> <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=http://www.mydoman.com/jsOff.php"> </noscript> However, I was told by someone I should avoid meta refreshes. Thoughts? |
