in my job (intranet)- I have an aspx page which has many Iframes ( all ours).
each iframe is being set(js/jquery) by btnX ( there are many buttons in the aspx page... some set src to iframes - some not).
notice : the progrssBAr is on the main page...
goal : progressBar while iframe is loading...
code :
( at first the myPageWrapper
is display:none
)
$('#myPageWrapper').on ('load','iframe',function () { $("#myProgressBar").hide();});
2 problems :
- i can listen to the iframes load finish event. but what about
showing
the ProgfressBar ?
i dont want to edit all btn's event "onclick" - is there any centralized solution to this [using jquery]?
i need something that does :
"when btn sets the src
to an iframe - show myProgressBar
"
- simultaneous events can occur : iframe A is being loading for 2 min ( example) - so it shows the progress bar , meanwhile i pressed other button which sets
src
to iframe B - which is loading very fast... once its loaded - it hides the ProgressBar ( look at my code) - but it shouldnt...A didnt finish yet....
CODE UPDATED
- NOTE:
since i received 3 up-votes i assume that this code is helping someone else other then the original OP; so i decided to update the code to reflect what it was meant to be at the beginning, since so far the OP and i have discovered that his problem was somewhere else in his code.
demo: http://so.lucafilosofi.com/iframes-loading-with-progress-bar-using-jquery/
head of main page
var iframes = [], progress = 0;
$(function() {
$pGressIndex = $('#progress-bar-indicator');
$('#navigation a').click(function() {
var iframe_id = this.hash.split('#')[1];
if (iframes.indexOf(iframe_id) === -1) {
$('#log').prepend('<p><strong>' + iframe_id + '</strong> is loading!</p>');
iframes.push(iframe_id);
if (parseInt($pGressIndex.width()) == 960) {
$pGressIndex.removeAttr('style');
}
var fW = (iframes.length > 1) ? (660 - (20 * iframes.length ) ) : 660;
$pGressIndex.animate({
width : fW
}, 5000);
var iframe_page = iframe_id + '.html';
if ($(this.hash).length != 0) {
$(this.hash).remove();
}
$('<iframe>').attr({
id : iframe_id,
src : iframe_page,
frameBorder : 0,
width : 960
}).appendTo('#iframes-wrapper');
}
return false;
});
});
bottom of main page:
window.addEventListener("message", function(e) {
console.log(iframes);
var index = iframes.indexOf(e.data);
iframes.splice(index, 1);
if (iframes.length == 0) {
$pGressIndex.stop(true).animate({
width : 960
}, 100);
}
$('#' + e.data).show();
}, false);
bottom of each iframe page:
top.postMessage('frame-name-or-what-you-want', window.location.href);
