Question

I’m using fancybox 2 to open an iframe that displays some inputs as checkbox like:

<input type="checkbox" id="contact" name="sector" value="cellular">

now I want that when the user clicks on the fancybox title a parent function will be called with the all checkbox values.

this is my fancybox title:

'<li onclick="parent.sendIframeDataToParent(document.getElementByType("checkbox"), "sector_hook");">Submit</li>'

and I’m getting this error: Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token }

What am I missing?

Answer 1

The " in your JavaScript terminates the HTML attribute you delimit with ". Giving you:

onclick="parent.sendIframeDataToParent(document.getElementByType("

When you have " as data in an attribute value delimited with ", represent them as ".
