I want to autofill textboxes on another website so I'm writing a short script to do this. I'm loading an iframe with a website in it and if this iframe is loaded, it should fill in the input text forms. So I wrote this in autofill.php
:
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
<script src="fill.js"></script>
<iframe name="autofillframe" src="https://e-services.blum.com/main/" style="width:100%; height:100%;"></iframe>
And this I wrote in fill.js
:
$(document).ready(function(e) {
$('#username').val('username');
$('#kennwort').val('password');
});
Here is a fiddle
If I do it with a .php file instead of a website, it works fine. Here's a demo without website
Can someone give me a hint?
By pressing submit button , input value copies from input textbox to iframe textbox (or opposit of it). you can implement it like:
test1.html
And test2.html :
When you load a page from a different domain into an
iframe
, you can't do anything to the iframe page from JavaScript in your page.As far as the browser is concerned, the iframe is a separate window and you have no access to it. Imagine that the user had a banking page open in one window and your page open in another window. You know that the browser would not let your JavaScript code interfere with the banking page, right?
The same thing applies when the other page is in an
iframe
. It's still a completely separate browser window, it's just positioned so it looks like it's inside your page.In your working example, the code works because the username and password fields are not in an
iframe
from a different domain. They are part of the same page that the JavaScript code is in.If the
iframe
is loaded from the same domain as your main page, then you can do anything you want to it, including filling in form fields. The code would be slightly different because you need to access theiframe
document instead of the main page document, but that's easy. But if theiframe
is from a different domain, you are out of luck.
