I'm working on a facebook tab that includes an iframe showing content from another website. I've narrowed the iframe down to only showing the part of the website that I want it to and disabled scrolling. In addition to that, I'd like to disable the links in the iframe content, and I've read that it should be possible by adding a transparent .png background image to a div containing the iframe and setting the iframe's z-index to -1, but the iframe is still in front of the image.
So far my css looks like this:
<style type="text/css">
iframe
{
z-index:-1;
}
.bgimg {
background-image: url('transparent.png');
}
</style>
and my html like this:
<div class="bgimg" style="overflow:hidden; width: 700px; height: 100%;margin:auto;">
<iframe src="http://www.url.com/site.html" width="1100" height="700" seamless="seamless" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="margin-top:-230px;"></iframe>
</div>
I'm using this to give a direct link to my amateur soccer team's league table, instead of manually having to update the tab each week with all the new information, but I don't want it to be possible to click on each team for team information - just the League table.
I've read several places that this should be possible, but haven't been able to find a functioning code - also read a few places saying it's impossible, and yet some others that say it can only be done using jQuery (which I know nothing about).
If anyone has any alternative solutions to what I'm doing now - please let me know.
Keep in mind that z-index only works for positioned elements (can be relative though.)
See: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#z-index:
Applies to: positioned elements

Is it possible to specify ¶mters=whatever type stuff for <iframe> in CSS?
I want to embed multi-track audio from archive.org. So for example, something like this:
<iframe src="https://archive.org/embed/art_of_war_librivox&playlist=1&list_height=200" width="100%" height="200"></iframe>
These bits are easy to do in CSS
.multitrack iframe {
width: 100%;
height: 200px;
}
But what about &playlist=1&list_height=200? Does that have to be done in HTML every time? I want to get it down to just:
<div class="multitrack">
<iframe src="https://archive.org/embed/art_of_war_librivox"></iframe>
</div>
I want to embed it on AO3.org, which is extremely stringent about what we're allowed to use. So please no "use this entirely other tool to solve your problem!" this time. If I can't do it with CSS, I'm pretty sure I can't do it at all.
I don't think there is a CSS based solution to your problem.
Your &playlist=1&list_height=200 is telling the iframed site iself (via GET request) that you want the first playlist and a playlist height of 200px to be rendered.
I'm trying desperately to make the link on a linked image work but whenever I click on the link, my browsers (Chrome & Firefox) just tell me they are connecting to the page and I get a continuous spinning image as if the browser were doing something. The link works perfectly if I open in another tab.
The div in question is coded and styled in a Wordpress page. I am making changes to another developer's work for a customer.
Here's the div:
<div style="position: absolute; top: 645px; left: 80px; width: 150px;">
<a href="http://themoneycouple.com/?p=4681" target="_top" style="display:inline-block">
<img src="http://themoneycouple.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/kit-history.png" alt="Toolkit History Link" width="150" height="170" style="position:relative; display:block; z-index:999999999999;" />
</a>
</div>
And here's the page it's on: http://themoneycouple.com/resources/love-and-money-kit/
I've tried changing the z-index on every element in multiple ways, tried changing the link target in every way possible, changed display settings, etc.
One last note, there are lots of iframes on this page and I'm not sure if those are messing things up somehow. Massive thanks for any help.
It looks like the URL for that HREF is trying to load a page as a modal using the fancybox protocol. Is this what is expected?
Does that page ID exist? It looks URL looks different from the other page URLs on the site.
There is a jQuery function that targets every IMG tag w/ an A tag and applies a class of "fancybox". Modify the specificity of this function to exclude the last item in the gallery. Better yet, create a new class and add it to the elements that should have the fancybox functionality. The same issue happens on other pages where the HREF goes to a page instead of opening an image.
Current jQuery function:
var thumbnails = jQuery("a:has(img)").not(".nolightbox").filter( function() { return /\.(jpe?g|png|gif|bmp)$/i.test(jQuery(this).attr('href')) });
thumbnails.addClass("fancybox").attr("rel","fancybox").getTitle();
I think I found the link you mean and it has a fancybox class on it, so I presume it is trying to open a fancybox javascript plugin popout for your link.. which is a redirect and failing to do so, since I can right click the link and go to open in new tab and it works.
I'm using a podsnack mp3 player. However, every page refresh, refreshes random numerical div ID codes such as id="cover#some-random-number#
So it'll show up like this
covercontainer80191
covercontainer36190
And so forth. What I wanted to do is a display:none to hide the cover side and just display the song titles instead. Is there a way to do this in the CSS?
The code I'm using is actually an <iframe/>.
<iframe style="border:none;margin-bottom: 5px" src="http://files.podsnack.com/iframe/embed.html?hash=ah3fblli&t=1369709402" width="425" height="320" allowfullscreen="true" mozallowfullscreen="true" webkitallowfullscreen="true" ></iframe>
If it's in an iframe I don't think there's much you can do with only CSS. It's a separate document and won't inherit styles from the parent document.
However, in your case you can do a little trick to accomplish your goals. Wrap the iframe in another element with overflow:hidden, then position the iframe in a way that hides the unwanted content:
<div>
<iframe></iframe>
</div>
You'll have to tweak the numbers here, but this seemed good for your case:
div {
overflow:hidden;
width:199px;
height:260px;
position:relative;
}
iframe {
position:absolute;
top:-43px;
left:-200px
}
Demo, with just the playlist displayed: http://jsfiddle.net/sxyXF/
However, the "cover side" also contains the play button, so there's no way to play the tracks.
If i'm understanding your question you want to hide all of these instances...if that's the case you can do this in your CSS to hide them
div[class~="covercontainer"]{
display:none;
}
I can go to facebook and get the code for a "like box". Very handy.
Problem is, the display of this box is lame. it's not consistent. The first article in the 'stream' is displayed with this sort of indentation:
The next article in the stream is displayed with different (lame) indentation.
This is in the same likebox, I merely scrolled down.
The effect is not limited to the stream for "Facebook Platform". I've seen it in the Likebox for other streams as well.
I'd like to style the box, to try to make the indentation consistent, but it appears to be rendered as an iframe, which (I think) means I cannot style it because of the S.O.P.
How can I fix this?
Is there a workaround to display a likebox in a div that is not, eventually, an iframe?
EDIT: bug logged: http://developers.facebook.com/bugs/237053466346453
EDIT: I compared the fb:fan control and the likebox control. With the fb:fan thing, it is possible to provide custom CSS to style the contents. (There are some caveats.) I set the width and margins of the text, and also erased the actorName, which is the same for every post. This is the result:
The left side is produced with this code:
<fb:fan profile_id='19292868552' width='292'
connections='0' show_faces='false' stream='true' header='false'
css='http://example.org/fb/customfanbox.css?_=6392'></fb:fan>
The right side is produced with this:
<iframe src="//www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fplatform&width=292&colorscheme=light&show_faces=false&border_color&stream=true&header=false&height=525"
scrolling="no"
frameborder="0"
style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:292px; height:525px;"
allowTransparency="true">
For the left-hand-side, if you don't want the fb:fan element, you can use an iframe that points to fan.php, like this:
<iframe src='http://www.facebook.com/plugins/fan.php?connections=0&css=http%3A%2F%2Fexample.org%2Ffb%2Ffb%2Fcustomfanbox.css%3F_%3D0292&id=19292868552&locale=en_US&sdk=joey&stream=true&width=292&height=560'
scrolling="no"
frameborder="0"
style="border-bottom:1px grey solid; overflow:hidden; width:292px; height:525px;"
allowTransparency="true">
You could try using the older fan box plugin which offered loading an external CSS file. I don't know if it still works. If so, it could stop working any moment.
You certainly are not the only one with such problems. I suggest you file a feature request / vote for an existing one.
You cannot style pages form other domains.
That would also make XSS possible.
I need to have the links within my Content Editor Web Part open in the parent frame. The links are a part of the page the iframe is loading. I am editing the Home Page of the SharePoint site and cannot add a tag to the page. Here is my code:
<div style="overflow:hidden; width: 800; height:200; position:absolute; left:-170px; top:0px;">
<iframe src="/News/Pages/Default.aspx#OuterZoneTable" style="overflow:hidden; width:100%; height:550;" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no">
</iframe></div>
The widths and heights are different because I am offsetting the page to show a particular location in the page.
Unless I'm missing something about your requirements, wouldn't a TARGET attribute set to _top (or _parent) on your anchors be sufficient?
You'd need to edit the HTML source to accomplish this, so maybe you're asking if there's a way to set that behavior using the Content Editor WYSIWYG controls -- which I don't believe there is.
Another idea would be to use scripting to set the attribute values via the DOM. For example, if you had jQuery in play on your page of links, you could do something like:
$("#OuterZoneTable>a").attr("target","_top");
That example assumes the links you want to change are contained in an element with the HTML id of "OuterZoneTable".
