iframe src

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

I’m not exactally sure how to this but, I’m looking for a way to change the source of an iframe, by selection of an option box. A link would work too, but I’d prefer the first way.

Thanks in advance.

@micjohnsonJul 12.2003 — <SCRIPT language=JavaScript>

var i=null

function go (){

if (i != null){}


y=i;

document.getElementById('1').innerHTML = '<iframe src="+y+"></iframe>'

}

</SCRIPT>

put that in your head

<div id=1></div>

put that in your body where you want the iframe to be when it is chosen

add the the code of your option i=("http://www.thesiteyouwant.com")

@obviousunknownauthorJul 12.2003 — I've got this for the script in the head:

<script>

go(source)

{

document.getElementById("ifrm").src = source;

}

</script>

Then i have this in the body:

<iframe src="" id="ifrm">

<a href="javascript:go('http://www.yahoo.com');">Yahoo!</a>

<a href="javascript:go('http://www.google.com');">Google</a>

-------
How would I do the same effect, but using an option box instead of a link? Something like this?

<select>

<option onClick="javascript:go('http//www.yahoo.com');">Yahoo!</option>

<option onClick="javascript:go('http//www.google.com');">Google</option>

</select>

</select>

<button type="submit">Send me</button>

</div>

</form>

[font=georgia]And the Perl script url.pl would look something like:[/font]

#!user/local/bin/perl

use CGI qw(redirect param);

print redirect param 'url';[/font]
