Question

I found this code in the accepted answer here…
which loads an iframe into a specific area
via a button click…

<a href="#" onclick="setIframe(this,'http://www.stackoverflow.co.uk')" >Set the Iframe up</a>

function setIframe(element,location){
    var theIframe = document.createElement("iframe");
    theIframe.src = location;
   element.appendChild(theIframe);
}

how do I change this so that it allows me to style the height width and scrolling?

Answer 1

This is not jQuery, but pure Javascript:

function setIframe(element,location){
    var theIframe = document.createElement("iframe");
    theIframe.src = location;
    theIframe.setAttribute("weight", "500");
    theIframe.setAttribute("width", "500");
    theIframe.setAttribute("scrolling", "yes");
    element.appendChild(theIframe);
}

This is not part of your question, but here is how you toggle a div with jQuery:

Markup:

<input type="button" value="Toggle Div"  id="btnToggle"/>

    <div id="randomContent">
        This is random Content.
        <br />
        This is random Content.
        <br />
        This is random Content.
        <br />
        This is random Content.
        <br />
        This is random Content.
        <br />
        This is random Content.
        <br />
    </div>

jQuery:

    $(document).ready(function () {
        $("#btnToggle").bind("click", function () {
            $("#randomContent").toggle();
        });
    });
