Setting name property of iframe created by splitterpane
posted

I use a websplitter. I set the ContentUrl of one of the splitterpanes. The other splitter pane contains html links, I want to target the html links to use the splitterpane. However the iframe rendered by the SplitterPane does not render a name attribute. Therefore my anchors cannot target the iframe.

    A nice hack for this is to set the contenturl in the aspx page - but then remove it on load and add a control that contains the iframe

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

    {

    AddIdToSplitterPanelIFrame(wsMainContent.Panes[0]);

    }

    private void AddIdToSplitterPanelIFrame(Infragistics.Web.UI.LayoutControls.SplitterPane pane)

    {

    if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(pane.ContentUrl))

    {

    string id = pane.ClientID;if (id.EndsWith(pane.ID))

    {

    id = id.TrimEnd(pane.ID.ToCharArray()) +     "iframe";

    }

    string contentUrl = pane.ContentUrl;

    pane.ContentUrl = String.Empty;

    Literal lb = new Literal();

    lb.Text = "<iframe src='" + contentUrl + "' id='" + id + "' style='width:100%;height:100%;'></iframe>";

    pane.Controls.Add(lb);

    }

    }

     

    then you can get the id within the javascript via

     

    <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">

     

    function goto(url)

    {

    document.getElementById(    '<%= wsMainContent.Panes[0].ClientID.TrimEnd(wsMainContent.Panes[0].ID.ToCharArray()) + "iframe" %>').src = url;

    }

     

    </script>

    works for me - but obviously a dirty dirty hack - much better if the control had a ControlFrameId property that did that for you
