Refreshing an iFrame from a client script??? or anywhere???

theiser · ‎07-16-2014

First of all, I am doing this in order to create a filter on the service catalog.

I am looking for code that will refresh specific/all iFrames. Here is the problem.I have an iFrame on the left that contains a specific view of the user profile. I have been able to add a client script that will automatically save/update the profile if a box is checked. I then have a BR that adds that user to the group that was checked. I now need code that will update the iFrame on the right side.

It sounds like you're inside of one iframe and trying to change the src on a different iframe. In this case when you call document, it's limited to the elements in your left iframe. In order to get around this, you should be able to use top to start at the top level document.

Try:

top.document.getElementById('gsft_main_az').src = top.document.getElementById('gsft_main_az').src

You could also do something like this:

top.document.getElementById('gsft_main_az').contentWindow.location.reload(true);

Finally got the answer using CustomEvent.fire('frame.resized'); this will increase the size of the iframe by user interaction on the form. Cheers all.
