I've searched everywhere including here and haven't been able to come up with a good solution. I ran into this and it works in everybrowser except Firefox and IE :( Help?
jQuery(function() {
sizeIFrame();
jQuery("#ifrm").load(sizeIFrame);
});
function sizeIFrame() {
var videoBrowser = jQuery("#ifrm");
var innerDoc = videoBrowser.get(0).contentDocument ?
videoBrowser.get(0).contentDocument.documentElement :
videoBrowser.get(0).contentWindow.document.body;
videoBrowser.height(35);
videoBrowser.height(innerDoc.scrollHeight + 35);
}
and it's on the same domain and here's my <iframe>
<iframe id="ifrm" src="http://localhost:8080/linkconsulting/temp.html" width="100%" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>
I'm testing on localhost
right now but it will still be on same domain later.
Update:
So I've noticed that this is not working because it seems to be interfering with tiny.scrollbar plugin or viceversa. Not sure what to do here :(
I have a feeling that this isn't working because the height is being calculated before the document has loaded. If you were to call sizeIFrame in the document.ready event it might make a difference.
In your IFrame try this code:
jQuery(function(){
parent.sizeIFrame();
}
Update:
As per our chat, you can get the height of the document in the IFrame with:
parent.jQuery(document).height()
I would say to pass the height as a parameter to your function.
You're using jQuery, try using the
iFrameAutoHeight plugin
Well I ended up taking a different approach. I got the contents from inside the iframe and inserted them inside a div. Here's the code in case anyone else needs it.. Thank you all for your patience and great help.
<script>
function getFile(){
var content = jQuery('#servercontent')[0];
var ifrm = jQuery('#ifrm')[0];
content.innerHTML = ifrm.contentDocument.body.innerHTML;
}
</script>
<body>
<div id="servercontent"></div>
<iframe id="ifrm" src="webinsamedomain.com" width="100%" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="display:none;" onload="getFile();" ></iframe>
</body>
