// This gist is intended for the age old problem of cross-origin iframe resizing for the height of an iframe to look like part of a site rather than a POS iframe. | |
// Put in the iframe code (after all of your content has loaded or at the end of success event for final ajax calls) | |
// This sends the height as an available variable for the parent page to grab. | |
window.parent.postMessage($(document).height(), "*"); | |
// In the parent page code. Initialize with onload="resizeIframe()". | |
// This grabs that variable and then sets the iframe height based on whatever is being sent back from the iframe | |
function resizeIframe() { | |
var eventMethod = window.addEventListener ? "addEventListener" : "attachEvent"; | |
var eventer = window[eventMethod]; | |
var messageEvent = eventMethod == "attachEvent" ? "onmessage" : "message"; | |
eventer(messageEvent, function (e) { | |
$('{{IFRAMEID-GOES-HERE}}').css('height',e.data); | |
}, false); | |
} | |
