Tutorial Resize iFrame to Fit Content (Same Domain Only)

by in , 09 Mar 2014 0

Normally you set and width and height for iframes. If the content inside is bigger, scrollbars have to suffice. The script below attempts to fix that by dynamically resizing the iframe to fit the content it loads. 

<script type='text/javascript' src='http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js?ver=1.3.2'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
    
    $(function(){
    
        var iFrames = $('iframe');
      
    	function iResize() {
    	
    		for (var i = 0, j = iFrames.length; i < j; i++) {
    		  iFrames[i].style.height = iFrames[i].contentWindow.document.body.offsetHeight + 'px';}
    	    }
    	    
        	if ($.browser.safari || $.browser.opera) { 
        	
        	   iFrames.load(function(){
        	       setTimeout(iResize, 0);
               });
            
        	   for (var i = 0, j = iFrames.length; i < j; i++) {
        			var iSource = iFrames[i].src;
        			iFrames[i].src = '';
        			iFrames[i].src = iSource;
               }
               
        	} else {
        	   iFrames.load(function() { 
        	       this.style.height = this.contentWindow.document.body.offsetHeight + 'px';
        	   });
        	}
        
        });

</script>

Will resize an iframe like this:

<iframe src="content.html" class="iframe" scrolling="no" frameborder="0"></iframe>

Still problematic...

The source of the iframe content must reside on the same domain if the content inside the iframe changes height, this won't adapt I left Google Analytics code off the demo above, as when I added it in it seems to interfere and not resize the iframe, despite seemingly generating no errors.

Tutorial Remove Specific Value from Array

var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
var removeItem = 2;   
 
arr = $.grep(arr, function(value) {
  return value != removeItem;
});

Tutorial Persistant Headers on Tables

by in , 09 Mar 2014 0

When you scroll down a page with a long table on it, typically the header of the table scrolls away and becomes useless. This code clones the table header and applies it at the top of the page once you have scrolled beyond it, and disappears when you have scrolled past the table.

View Demo

function UpdateTableHeaders() {
   $("div.divTableWithFloatingHeader").each(function() {
       offset = $(this).offset();
       scrollTop = $(window).scrollTop();
       if ((scrollTop > offset.top) && (scrollTop < offset.top + $(this).height())) {
           $(".tableFloatingHeader", this).css("visibility", "visible");
           $(".tableFloatingHeader", this).css("top", Math.min(scrollTop - offset.top, $(this).height() - $(".tableFloatingHeader", this).height()) + "px");
       }
       else {
           $(".tableFloatingHeader", this).css("visibility", "hidden");
           $(".tableFloatingHeader", this).css("top", "0px");
       }
   })
}

$(document).ready(function() {
   $("table.tableWithFloatingHeader").each(function() {
       $(this).wrap("<div class="divTableWithFloatingHeader" style="position:relative"></div>");
       $("tr:first", this).before($("tr:first", this).clone());
       clonedHeaderRow = $("tr:first", this)
       clonedHeaderRow.addClass("tableFloatingHeader");
       clonedHeaderRow.css("position", "absolute");
       clonedHeaderRow.css("top", "0px");
       clonedHeaderRow.css("left", "0px");
       clonedHeaderRow.css("visibility", "hidden");
   });
   UpdateTableHeaders();
   $(window).scroll(UpdateTableHeaders);
});

Tutorial Paste Events

by in , 09 Mar 2014 0 

$.fn.pasteEvents = function( delay ) {
    if (delay == undefined) delay = 20;
    return $(this).each(function() {
        var $el = $(this);
        $el.on("paste", function() {
            $el.trigger("prepaste");
            setTimeout(function() { $el.trigger("postpaste"); }, delay);
        });
    });
};

Call this plugin on an element, then you get callback events for before and after pasting:

$("#some-element").on("postpaste", function() { 
    // do something
}).pasteEvents();

Tutorial Password Strength

by in , 09 Mar 2014 0 

$('#pass').keyup(function(e) {
     var strongRegex = new RegExp("^(?=.{8,})(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[0-9])(?=.*\\W).*$", "g");
     var mediumRegex = new RegExp("^(?=.{7,})(((?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[a-z]))|((?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[0-9]))|((?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[0-9]))).*$", "g");
     var enoughRegex = new RegExp("(?=.{6,}).*", "g");
     if (false == enoughRegex.test($(this).val())) {
             $('#passstrength').html('More Characters');
     } else if (strongRegex.test($(this).val())) {
             $('#passstrength').className = 'ok';
             $('#passstrength').html('Strong!');
     } else if (mediumRegex.test($(this).val())) {
             $('#passstrength').className = 'alert';
             $('#passstrength').html('Medium!');
     } else {
             $('#passstrength').className = 'error';
             $('#passstrength').html('Weak!');
     }
     return true;
});

Assumes this HTML:

<input type="password" name="pass" id="pass" />
<span id="passstrength"></span>

Tutorial Partial Page Refresh

by in , 09 Mar 2014 0

Refresh certain elements of a page using jQuery after a set amount of time, can be used with any element with an ID. I amended the example given with the URL to only refresh once and not intermittently. Works in all browsers.

$('#button1').click(function() {

   var url = "http:www.your-url.com?ID=" + Math.random(); //create random number

   setTimeout(function() {
    $("#elementName").load(url+" #elementName>*","");
   }, 1000); //wait one second to run function

});
