This is my iframe:
#htmlDiv {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 300px;
height: 650px;
width: 1130px;
}
#htmlFrame {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
margin: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
height: 630px;
width: 1110px;
}
<div id="htmlDiv">
<iframe id="htmlFrame"></iframe>
</div>
$('#htmlFrame').click(function(){
alert('clicked');
});
But when I click inside the iframe, it doesn't show "clicked".
How do I detect click inside iframe.
You cannot detect a click event on an iframe
. What can be done is you can place a overlapping layer
on top of your iframe
and capture the click event of the overlapping div. See below snippet:
$("#overlap").on("click",function(){
alert("click");
$("#overlap").css("z-index",-1);
});
$("#htmlFrame").on("mouseleave",function(){
$("#overlap").css("z-index",1);
});
#htmlDiv {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 300px;
height: 65px;
width: 113px;
}
#htmlFrame {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
margin: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
height: 63px;
width: 110px;
}
#overlap{
position: absolute;
background-color:trasparent;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
margin: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
width: 110px;
height:63px;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="htmlDiv">
<iframe id="htmlFrame"></iframe>
<div id="overlap">
</div>
</div>
Your current code is working fine, try to click it to the border of the iframe
and the alert will show. I tried to create a solution for you by adding an overlay to the iframe
You can see the DEMO
<div id="htmlDiv">
<iframe id="htmlFrame"></iframe>
<div id="overlay">
</div>
</div>
I did this:
<div style="position:relative;">
<iframe src="..."></iframe>
<div style="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;right:0;bottom:0;eventual mouse cursor style" onclick="eventual alternative action"></div>
</div>
