Animating HTML frame size change

mrmiffo

Hi, I want to animate the change of a frames' size. Something like;

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. for (i=0, i<250, i++)
  2. {
  3. var aValue = i + "px,*"
  4. parent.document.getElementById(whichFrameSet).cols = aValue;
  5. }
What I do not understand is why the frame is not updated each and every time the size is set... not until i = 250 it will display the result.
Is it because the frameset is not updated visually when in loop? Or is it just counting to 250 too fast so I need to put a timer here as well?
If I put an alert in the loop, the frame will change each time I click "ok".
Is there any way in js to update the framset visually in a loop?

Thanks in advance!

This belongs to the JavaScript forum, but anyway...

You need to use setInterval for the animation effect. It's too fast otherwise.

Hi, I know the noresize attribute will keep the user from resizing a frame, but is there a way to keep a frame from being resized by the browser (in response to things like different layouts/sizes on the page)? Basically I want my frame sizes to remain fixed no matter what happens.

Hi. I must first say I'm not an experienced scripter. Here's my problem and how far I am so far. I struggled for awhile to get the browser to fill most of it with my flash movie and keep it proportional if the user chooses to size up or size down. This pretty much takes care of the browser size complications. Here is original script and it works. But now I have few problems after this. CODE#1 <!-- masked --> <html> <head>...

I want to animate one object moving in front of another. I cannot re-render the background as the object moves, as it would be extremely time consuming. This is what I would like to do. I draw the background to a Graphics object, copy it, draw the front object on the original, render it to the screen, then reload the copy (Clone?) of the background for the next loop. I couldn't find any way of doing this directly, and if there is I...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
