Basic react iframe with onLoad handler

var Example = React.createClass({
getInitialState: function() {
return {
isLoading: true
};

'is-loading': this.state.isLoading // Hide `is-loading` with CSS
});
return (

<p>Loading... A spinner would probably be nice here</p>
:null

+1 on @kocur4d, @iest there are breaking changes to recent versions of React that would cause this code to throw errors. Thank you very much for providing a clear example on how to harness iframe onload in React!

Thanks, though I am having some difficulties in how to use this in my react app.. Say I pass an url into the src of the BzIframe, (and thus into the iframe), which in turn renders that webpage in the iframe, and when the iframe-url is changed, for example by the user clicking a button and getting redirected..how would I be able to get that redirct-url back into my react app?

Thanks!

I would like to see how we can handle when the url don't resolve or fails to load?
