I have an iframe I want to add to my React.js website. The src of the iframe links to another responsive website (hereby known as "gallery"). This means the width and height of gallery will change depending on the website size. How do I adjust the width/height/styling of the iframe so that like gallery, the iframe also shows all of the webpage contents regardless of screen size?
I tried setting the width and height of the iframe to 100%. While the iframe did span the entire width of the device screen regardless of size, setting the height to 100% unfortunately did not do what I wanted it to. Only a small part of the iframe showed up and the rest was cut off with a scrolling bar. If I set scrolling to "no", the same small part of the iframe would still only show.
I also tried hardcoding the height of the iframe. If I set the height large enough to show all contents on larger screens, some of the content would still be cut off on smaller screens. If I set the height large enough for smaller screens like smartphones, there would be a ton of empty space at the bottom of my website on larger screens that I didn't want.
I am not sure what to do. Some of the things I tried (such as setting height to 100% and setting scrolling to no) were from stackoverflow itself, so I have tried looking at other posts. I'm not sure what to do.
I can share code if needed; this is a personal project, not a school project, so there aren't any consequences of sharing code.
Thanks in advance for the help!
My HTML CODE -
<div class = "container">
<iframe title = "gallery" class = "responsive" src="LINK" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen scrolling="no">
</iframe>
</div>
</div>
MY CSS CODE -
.container {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
padding-top: 66.66%;
}
.responsive {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
border: none;
}
This problem is way more complex than it should be, at one point a solution was part of the HTML 4 spec, but it got dropped I expect due to being to hard to reliable work out the night of the content.
I wrote a library a while ago that tackles these problems, it is called iframe-resize-react and should work in most situations

I am trying to embed this in my site and make my site resize to fit the content so the container with the embedded content has no scroll bar, only the main page (hope this makes sense). Below is what I am doing now, however height 100% won't work
<embed src="https://shop.inventarnd.com/index.php?rt=product/product&product_id=124" style="width: 100%; height: 100%">
The width is working but height does not work.
I have already tried the following
Making parent tags such as html, body, etc... have height 100%
Here is a link to my site where i want to embed it.

I want to have this web page embedded on my site and have the scroll bar not be there. So have the web page automatically resize to fit the embedded content.
You could use an iframe, this might solve your problem.
embed {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
The background is clear, so the previous page will show through but the scrollbar and content are all ok. I would change the background to white as well, but I'm not sure what you are and aren't able to do.
I want to embed some Facebook posts (images) on my website, which is intended to be responsive. I am using bootstrap as a main frame for everything and it is very easy to get typical image responsiveness.
Unfortunately with Facebook posts those are iframe objects and they don't want to scale so nicely.
For my tests I am using this iframe:
<div class="iframe_div">
<div>Title</div>
<div>
<iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FKickstarter%2Fphotos%2Fa.10152384621799885.1073741831.73182029884%2F10154511546454885%2F%3Ftype%3D3&width=500" style="border:none;overflow:hidden;width:100%;height:100%;position:absolute;left:0;" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>
</div>
<div>Tekst</div>
</div>
My problem is that when I am changing the size of the window I can sometimes see whole post and other time only top half of it. Well, more precisely it is gradually changing between those two values. Good thing is that it is never too wide, but it is not height enough to display whole.
Another issue is that it overlays the text below it, and only if I'll set some fixed value for iframe_div I am able to see it, but then it is not responsive design.
Does anyone managed to embed facebook post in responsive design page?
Replace this piece at the end of src value:
&width=500
For this:
&width=auto
And put this attribute into iframe tag:
style="width: 100%"
you have to style the container of iframe try this :
.post-container {
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 56.25%;
padding-top: 35px;
height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
}
you also need to style iframe like :
position: absolute;
top:0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
you can customize padding for your post.
My iframe code
<iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FFordIndia%2Fposts%2F4221333164585267&show_text=true&width=auto" width="500" height="660" style="border:none;overflow:hidden;width:100%;" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true" allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture; web-share"></iframe>
The issue is we set the width and height. For ex; Width=500 & height =600. This embed work without responsive issue, more than 500px. But below 500px width reduced, but height not reduced. We can't set height auto. So am trying to resolve that. We have posted more than 1000 embeds in our website, also all embeds not a same height because we include caption also. so it's not possible to responsive via CSS. So am choosing jQuery to resolve this. I need to set height same ration. Am creating below code for setup same ratio
<script>
$("iframe").each(function() {
$(this).css("height", $(this).width()*$(this).attr('height')/$(this).attr('width'));
});
</script>
This code works as what i want. But there is am getting one more issue. The issue is caption height is automatically adjust for responsive. ex; in desktop caption have 3 lines, in mobile caption have 6 lines. so first 3 lines only shown. So am think to resolve any other ways. Am suggest to my team remove captions for all posts but it's take huge time to change 1000 posts. So am set the height for post height so caption automatically hide.
Finally below single line code only sort my issues
#media screen and (max-width:500px){
.single-post iframe{max-height:87vw}
}
You should vw if you use px we responsive break every px
I have a website that I am making for a friend, and on the mobile homepage, the footer is perfectly aligned. However, when you go over to either the pics or vids page, the footer is moved over to the left side. The css file can be found here. I have no idea why this is happening, and any help to understand why this is happening, and how to fix it would be great.
Just a quick note, to access the mobile version on desktop, use chrome, open up dev tools, and click on the phone icon in the top left of the dev tools pane. Set the width to 617, and the height to 1002.
Thanks!
Your content is overflowing from the pf-content class, making the page larger than 100% width that the footer is filling.
There are a range of ways to solve this:
Add overflow hidden to pf-content (Will look nasty on small screens)
Set a min width on the whole page body{ min-width: 1200px; }
Make the videos reactive, e.g. display inline blocks which will then wrap to a new line if the page is to small. (Could also be done with media queries used to scale the videos)
I would suggest making the page more responsive, and getting the videos to flow onto new lines if the page is too small to contain multiple. As a general rule tables aren't a great way to structure anything (other than an actual data table) you'd be much better off with a more flexible element. Though this will be more work on your part.
The width of the two iframes for video are set to 520px each which exceed the resolution you were testing on.
The iframes were placed in a table, with a fixed number of columns, causing an issue of overflow.
You can place the iframes in div instead, then change the way they are displayed in css. i.e. you can do a 2 column-like structure in the desktop.css if preferred and a responsive one in the mobile.css

A lot of sites have embedded Youtube videos. Youtube works on phones now. If responsive design is going to be a thing, why shouldn't it be a thing for iframes that contain Youtube videos?
After searching for days (on and off) I couldn't find a clear, simple solution to the problem (I'm new to HTML/CSS). It's easy to scale iframe width, but to keep height relative I found chunks of javascript, jQuery, and php, all pretty esoteric to a beginner at web design. I wanted a simple method of scaling an iframe's height to always keep a certain aspect ratio, no matter how the width changes.
To keep this from being an unanswered question, the method's below. Here are the initial settings for your iframe:
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/example_url" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
That's it.
I was wondering if anyone had any other solutions as well.
The solution was nested divs. A little hackey, I know, but it's a really easy solution to a problem that had too many solutions. Youtube videos keep an aspect ratio of 16:9 in this example. Your HTML should look like this:
<div id="outer">
<div id="inner">
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/example_url" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
</div>
</div>
And your stylesheet:
#outer{
max-width: 640px;
max-height: 360px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
#inner{
height: 0px;
padding-bottom: 56.25%;
}
#inner iframe{
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
The outer div sets the maximum height and width and allows itself to scale, while the inner div uses the padding attribute to match its height to the width of the containing div (I'm pretty sure). The value should be set at (height*100/width)%, the ratio of the height to the width. The iframe then stretches to fill the whole containing div. Whitespace fills on web, so you should be just fine putting text underneath.
I can't remember exactly where I found it. It was done with images somewhere else on Stack Overflow, but I think it's relevant to have it set up to work for iframes since embedded Youtube videos are so common.
Here's a JSfiddle with the working thing.
With the introduction of the aspect-ratio property in CSS, you don't need any clever workarounds, wrappers, or JS.
iframe {
aspect-ratio: 16 / 9;
height: auto;
width: 100%;
}
The property already has excellent support across browsers making it suitable for the majority of sites: https://caniuse.com/mdn-css_properties_aspect-ratio
Working Example
I'm testing out Swiffy, and plugging it into Zurb's Foundation responsive framework. It all works well. I also updated the CSS for the #swiffycontainer container to have a width of width: 100%;.
The content fits nicely into the grid, but the my only issue is that if the size isn't set explicitly, then on a smaller screen, then, I get this issue with the height being way way larger than the content, even with height set at 500px. This also results in the Swiffy container showing contents outside of the stage.
Any ideas as to why? Would it be with the SVG generated from Swiffy? Thanks!
Update: It seems that this is probably related to AS 2/3's stageScale property on the Stage. Would anybody happen to know of a happy medium between "showAll/SHOW_ALL", and "noBorder/NO_BORDER"? Where the stage still resizes but doesn't show a border around it?
I ended up solving this issue with a bit of CSS that ensures that the height is scaled proportionally to the width (what ever width it maybe due to the responsive grid). This keeps the flash/Swiffy container from creating the letterbox bars.
In the SWF: Keep the default (AS2):
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
In the CSS, created a wrapper on the Swiffy container:
.swiffy-wrap {
position: relative;
width: 100%;
padding-bottom: 100%;
float: left;
height: 0;
}
On the Swiffy container
#swiffycontainer {
width : 100% !important;
height: 100% !important;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
}
just put in the html result of swiffy conversion width 100% be careful only width not height, height, like this
div id="swiffycontainer" style="width: 100%; height: 500px"
works for me
