I have placed some custom HTML, CSS, and jQuery inside an HTML box in my google site. but as the page loads, the unformatted content shows for several seconds until the loading is complete. attempts to add the following:
html { visibility: hidden; }
and then turning it back on later in jQuery do not appear to work inside a Google site.
Does anyone have another suggestion?
I don't know if this works on a google site or not, but using
<body style='display:none;'>
and then in the jQuery document ready function place
$("body").show(); has worked for me.
For some reason using style on the body statement works faster than the CSS file even if the CSS file appears in the head section.

I have a site that has multiple pages. The first page is just a listview with icons and links to the other pages. CSS stylesheets work fine on the first page, but when I go to one of the linked pages, my custom css stylesheet (and js for that matter), related to that page, is being ignored. If I look in the FF inspector I see that it has dropped the associated lines that tell it about my stylesheet. If I directly go to the desired page or if I hit refresh, the styles look fine, but whenever I come from a link off the first page, the styles are gone. I see no errors when loading the page. Is this a know issue? How can I force it to not ignore my stylesheets.
I am using jquery mobile 1.4.5 in addition to my own.
Looking further. It looks like hitting the link is appending the body of the 2nd page at the end of the first and not simply loading the 2nd page.
It turns out that by default links behave a little different than normal when using jQuery Mobile. The don't do a full page load, but instead only inject the part contained in a div marked with data-role="page". I did not know this.

Our webapp displays untrusted html uploaded by end users. At the moment, we display the html in an iframe, which nicely isolates the html from the rest of the site. Any css contained in the html can't mess up anything outside the iframe.
Unfortunately, the iframes are causing problems as we try to migrate to a mobile-friendly site. We're having trouble getting mobile touch event handlers to function correctly inside an iframe.
Is there any alternative to iframes for this app? We'd like to load the html into a plain <div>, but <html> and <head> tags aren't really valid inside a div and we'd have to play a bunch of games to get the css to work. And then we'd have to prevent the css from affecting anything else on the site.
We could try to sanitize the html, but we really do need to allow end users to apply their own arbitrary css to the html. The nature of the app requires it.
I am using an iframe and i have a tinymce UI button. When the button gets pushed i remove a stylesheet from the iframes head (and i add another stylesheet). This works.
On second button push i remove the formerly added stylesheet. This works.
But when i want to insert the stylesheet which i removed on first button push it does not work.
It looks like i am only allowed to insert a stylesheet which has never been loaded in the iframes head.
Does anyone know why that is?
Is there a workaround for this?
I had to change the function used to replace the stylesheet.
Formerly, i used
ed.dom.loadCSS( ed.settings.content_css );
to insert a stylesheet into the editor iframe head.
Main developer of moyxiecode spocke confirmed that loadCss only loads a stylesheet once (it several times in the past)
Using this jQuery code instead of the above code works like a charm:
$('#'+ed.id+'_ifr').contents().find('head').append('<link href="'+ed.settings.content_css+'" rel="stylesheet">');
I have one jQuery plugin (colorbox) that loads a modal popup window (with an external html file). <-- works perfectly by itself. I have another jQuery plugin (jScrollPane) that loads custom scroll bars for divs. <-- it too works perfectly by itself. Both have a JS component and a CSS component.
My process thus far:
I tried to load and initialize the scroll bar jQuery and CSS from the eternal html (popup) and my div disappeared.
Then I tried to load the scroll bar jQuery in the parent window and initialize it in the colorbox callback...this time my div didn't disappear but the scroll bar and arrows (even OS standard arrows) did disappear.
Finally, I put the scroll bar CSS in <style> tags and shoved it inside the eternal html file's <body> tags. That works on all major browsers, however, now you can't exit the popup window. Arg!
So I think my question is: how do you get jQuery plugins and their CSS files to initialize on dynamically loaded content? What goes where (incl. the jQuery library itself)?
Thanks!
If you are using the "window.open" type of popup, then I would say make it a little simpler and bring it into your page as a JQueryUI Dialog box that pulls in your external html file are the content, loading it in the DIV and accessible within the general page context, inheriting the JQuery and CSS as well. The simple form of this should be like:
$("#id").load(url).dialog();
Where #id is the DIV that is hidden and will contain your dialog data, and URL is the external url to the html file in your popup.
Found the solution....
My question was specifically on integrating colorbox (a jQuery lightbox plugin) with jScrollPane (a jQuery custom scrollbar plugin). My ajax call to load content with the colorbox worked, however, the jScrollPane could not initiate because the required wasn't loaded (because the ajax call didn't pull any info from the head tags).
If other Stack Overflowers stumble across a similar issue this is what I did to solve it: used iframes instead of an ajax call. Ooops. duh.
I don't know if colorbox is the only plugin that pulls info only from body tags and not the head but I imagine many plugins work this way when working with external files. If this is your problem, use iframes to ensure that the data in your head tag is pulled.
Thanks Stack Overflow anyhoo! I still love you.
I can see this web site is somewhat over my head, but I'm having trouble finding an answer.
I want to put my header, with links to other pages, over external content. Here's why: My MLM gives me a replicated web site that they maintain. I want to add links to my blog, contact info, even meta tags to the site. I though I had it done by using an iframe. I have my content at the top, and the MLM site shows up in the iframe. (here is the link www.trivanijoanne.com) The problem is that the iframe doesn't resize when the external content changes, and it is confusing for the user to need to scroll up to see the page. Also, the pdf pages don't load inside the iframe.
I looked around online and see that iframes are a thing of the past. What should I be using to accomplish this task?
you could use PHP to get the page markup (possibly using cURL or fopen) and display it whilst putting your own content into the body section
(str_replace()
<body>
with
<body><div id='header'>my content</div>
)
and attach your own css stylesheet with
*{
position:relative;
top:-100px;
}
if you cant use PHP for some reason then this could also be done using javascript and iFrames
