I am using the editArea library and jquery to do what i need...
http://www.cdolivet.com/index.php?page=editArea&sess=2b8243f679e0d472397bfa959e1d3841
so in my html there is an iframe tag that editArea uses what i need is to access something like so with jquery
$('iframe textarea').keydown(function (e){
number = 17; //any number really :)
if(e.which == number){
//do something...
alert('Done...');
}
});
I tried the above but it looks like it is not detecting that key. but it works if selector was $(document) therefore the rest of the function works it's just it's not picking up the iframes textarea keydown
any ideas? Thanks

$("iframe").contents().find("textarea").keydown(...)
ReplyDeleteYou need search within the inner document of the iframe, in order to get the textarea element:
ReplyDeletevar textarea = $('textarea', $('iframe').get(0).contentWindow.document);
textarea.keydown(function (e){
var number = 17;
var code = (e.keyCode ? e.keyCode : e.which);
if(code == number){
//do something...
alert('Done...');
}
});
You need to access the iframes contentWindow.document, not the iframe itself.
ReplyDeleteWell, is this what you want:

You should be doing
ReplyDeleteiframeDoc = document.getElementById('resultsFrame').contentWindow;
// result frame is id of iframe
$(iframeDoc).keydown(function(e))
{
// your functionality here
}
You can travel any level, The above answers are correct. I did as below
ReplyDeletevar iframeMain = $("#iframe0").contents().find('#iframeMain');
var detailsForm = $(iframeMain).contents().find('#detailsform');
for accessing parents you can use
window.parent.parent. // upto any level
