Display table within IFRAME

jeet_sen

Hi,
I have a some data in the form of a table to displayed as small pop
up frame.
For this I have used an Iframe which is created dynamically. Then I
created a table element and added as a child of the the iframe. Though
the frame is getting displayed but its empty without any table.
Can a table element be added as a child of an iframe?
Or Iframe can only read data from a source html mentioned with src
attribute.
Can anyone throw some light on it?

Regards,
Suvajit

Objects displayed in the iframe are not children of iframe. They are
children of the document loaded in the iframe. Therefore instead of
f.appendChild(. ..); you have to use
f.contentWindow .document.body. appendChild(... );

"f" - means iframe object.

Hi marss,
Thanks a lot for your help. I tried it out.
But Its is saying that "f.contentWindo w has no properties" .
My source html is as follows:
<html>
<head>
<title>QC run details</title>
<link rel="StyleSheet " href="../css/detailBox.css" type="text/css">
<script type="text/javascript"
src="../scripts/detailBox.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Details of TurboChar QC run:</h2>
<div id="detail"></div>
</body>
</html>

And i wanted to add the table object to div element detail.
The syntax is as follows:
var contents = document.create Element('IFRAME ');
contents.src = "detailBox.html ";
contents.conten tDocument.getEl ementById("deta il").appendChil d(newEl);
boxdiv.appendCh ild(contents);
document.body.a ppendChild(boxd iv);
where
my newEl is the TABLE object,
boxdiv is a div object with which my iframe is associated

What can I be missing ?

You are missing the fact that until iframe is added and it's content is
loaded, it doesn't have any id's from detailBox.html. On this stage it
is just an abstract DOM "iframe" object with "src" string property set
to "detailBox.html ".

You need to go from the opposite direction: detailBox.html template has
to have onload handler to query opener/ownerDocument for data and
append it.
