Iframe contents

Hello!

I have an iframe with different contents each time. How can it fit the contents each time (flow) without a scroll bar?
Thank you,

Don´t you want a scrollbar? Is that right !?

It doesn't work! The scrollbar appears the same.

I need an iframe looking like a table!

Thank you

Why not just use a table?

Because the src property is variable!

This is what you can have on a iFrame:

Code: Select all: <IFRAME ALIGN=ABSBOTTOM | ABSMIDDLE | BASELINE | BOTTOM | LEFT | MIDDLE | RIGHT | TEXTTOP | TOP BORDER=integer BORDERCOLOR=color DATAFLD=colname DATASRC=#ID FRAMEBORDER=string FRAMESPACING=string HEIGHT=string HSPACE=variant CLASS=string ID=string LANG=string LANGUAGE=JAVASCRIPT | JSCRIPT | VBS | VBSCRIPT MARGINHEIGHT=string MARGINWIDTH=string NAME=window_name NORESIZE=NORESIZE | RESIZE SCROLLING=AUTO | NO | YES SRC=string STYLE=string TITLE=string VSPACE=string WIDTH=string event = script ></IFRAME>

So, try:

Code: Select all: This: scrolling="no" And this: noresize="resize"

In order to bring your code up to HTML 4.01 standard, write the tag names in lowercase!

----------------------------------------

<IFRAME id="boh" src="display-prop.php?action=Initial" width="90%" allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" noresize="resize" align="center">
</IFRAME>

Still it doesn't work!

Try this one:

Code: Select all: <iframe id="boh" src="display-prop.php?action=Initial" width="90%" allowtransparency scrolling="no" resize align="center"></iframe>

Don´t forget, you better write your code in lowercase!

Nothing! The dimension of the iframe remains the same

well i´m almost sure we can´t change an iframe size that way.
I think the resize/noresize properties are to specify whether we can change its size or not!
Let´s try it with javascript. Place this code between <head></head>!
Example (replace 'iframe_name' with your iframe name):

Code: Select all: <script language="JavaScript"> function resize() { var iframe = document.all.iframe_name; iframe.height=document.frames("iframe_name").document.body.scrollHeight; } </script>

Use the onload property in your body or even in your iframe tag.
Example:

Code: Select all: <body onload="resize()"> or... <iframe onload="resize()">

Than add this property to your iframe, Like:

Code: Select all: <iframe scrolling="no" ></iframe>

Hello!

There is a problem: if I write onload() there is a delay of 2-3 seconds until the frame resizes. Maybe it waits for the page to load and then resize ...

Do you have any idea about?

------------------------------------

What do you have ?
This:

Code: Select all: <body onload="resize()">

or this ...

Code: Select all: <iframe onload="resize()">

??

-------------------------------------

The second one!

And that one seems to be faster than the first!
Hunn... i don´t see how you can you put it faster than that!
Try to call that function when you link to the iframe.
Example:

Code: Select all: <a href="somefile.htm" target="iframe_name" onClick="resize();">link</a>
