Help on IFrames

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am using Iframes in my application, in which I provide the source for html pages & javascripts. Can someone please tell me if I can make the WD application communicate with the embedded IFrame pages? i.e Can I capture a button click on the HTML page of the IFrame & trigger some action in the embedding application and vice versa? If it is possible, please tell me how?

Thanks in advance,

Best Regards,

Nibu.

Hi Nibu,

This topic has been raised several times, but I've never seen follow-up with solution. It is always advised to use portal eventing for such communication as far as no other mechanism exists.

Hi,

To capture an a link, use Iframes and then crop it. Create an iframes in a div container and crop it.

Sample code is given below. It worked for me.Hope it helps.

<div style="overflow: hidden; margin-top: -160px; margin-left: -155px; margin-bottom: +600px;"><iframe src="" width="1000" height="1000"></iframe></div>

Best Regards.

Hi Nibu,

U can't capture the button click even of an html page of he IFrame so its better u go for EPCF(Portal Eventing).

I too tried doing it but Couldnt succeed.

If u could please let me know.
