I have an iframe that displays live prices of stock market. My problem is that when i load my page, this iframe shows a pop up window for cookies policy.
Is there anyway to avoid this window completely (or select "accept" in background) so that this iframe will directly show stock prices?
I found some information about sandbox option but could not go deeper with that
My website is the following and the iframe is on the down-left

("Αποδέχομαι" is the button of "Accept cookies")
Thanks
Sandboxing the iframe can prevent all JS from running inside it, but that would probably break the page in other ways.
There's nothing you can do from outside the frame.
You'd need to change the page inside the frame instead. You could add a query string to the URL that it uses to disable the tracking cookies by default, or use postMessage to send a message into the frame that code there uses to remove the cookie prompt.
Of course, this will need the cooperation of the people who control the site you are displaying in the frame … but if they are happy for you to show their content on your page that shouldn't be too much of a problem, should it?

Before I start describing my problem I just want to give a heads-up that all the pages, iFrames etc. are hosted locally on my PC. And that I have used page.setBypassCSP(true) to temporarily disable any origin based restrictions.
Here we go, I have a webpage which embeds an iFrame and that iFrame may embed another one (and the list can go on...). Some of the deeper iFrames may be appended to the body of it's parent via Javascript e.g. document.body.appendChild inside a setTimeout(..., 3000) which kind of simulates a dynamic iframe load. I want to know what is the best way to evaluate a script source on all of these iFrames. I tried using page.on('framenavigated', ...) but this only works for the page's immediate child frame(s).
I tried recursively iterating through all the frames in the page using page.frames() but that only works for iFrames that are available at the time when the DOMContentLoaded event is fired.
I'm looking for a way to listen to all the framenavigated events fired by all the nested iFrames even for the ones that loaded dynamically at any point of time, after the page is loaded. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
UPDATE:
I have tried listening to events using page.on('frameattached', ...) and page.on('framedetached', ...) but that also doesn't let me list all iFrames.
I'm playing around with some stuff and trying to discern if when using a cross-domain iframe(post_message) if I can read the elements: div-tag p-tag etc of site within the iframe? I haven't seen any other posts on this, so hopefully someone can provide some insight.
postMessage allows you to communicate with a cooperating iframe. To use it, one window must send a message with postMessage and the other window must have an event listener listening for the message and it must process that message and do whatever you want done with it.
So, it is possible to use postMessage to retrieve content from an iframe, even a cross-origin iframe, but it requires that there be code in the iframe that can receive the message, understand what is being asked of it and do postMessage back to the original frame with the information that was requested.
So, this means that if you control both the window and iframe javascript, you can do what you ask, but if you don't control one of the two and they don't already have the right javascript code in them to fetch the data you want, then you can't get the job done with postMessage. All it does is deliver messages. The code to process those messages must be put there by the owner of that particular web page.
I'm working on my website where I have a music player. The annoying part is that when I browse to another page the player stops and starts from begining...
What I want is to have a persistent music player. So how can I make the div that contains the music player to be static when browsing to another page?
The website: demo(dot)zdringhi-art(dot)com
Thanks!
WEB is stateless.
So if you move to another page there is no way for a div to remain the same.
Although what you can do is that... Hmm as follows.
Have a single page and have your div in there.
Then the other part of the page is loaded via ajax.
also when a link is clicked only parts of pages will be loaded.
Seems too much of coding , but is the only feasible option.
For eg take facebook
Gurav shah is correct, the web is stateless so if you are changing pages you only have a few options for this.
Frames, yes before anyone shouts this is what they were designed for. You could have the music player in one HTML frame and the rest of the page in another so when you move around you are only updating the main content frame.
Or do as gurav suggests and make your whole site one page and update the content with Ajax, so the music Div does not change.
Pass the current position of the player to the next page when you click a link.
to another page
Where getseconds() returns the current position of the music player and passes it to the next page then when that page is loaded you read in the variable from the URL and start the player from there.
Using frames is one solution but since you are using JQuery on your site you should check out .load (http://api.jquery.com/load/). It allows you to load the content of another page and put it somewhere in the current page. Something like this:
$(function () {
$("a").click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault(); // don't follow the link
$("#ja-container").load($(this).attr("href") + " #ja-container");
/* Load the new page using ajax request, take the content in #ja-container from that new page and put it in the current page's #ja-container */
});
});
This is not a complete solution: when someone clicks Concerts -> Agenda you should keep Agenda visible.
Personally, instead of forced background music I'd rather like to see a page with Youtube videos of the people playing the music.
Well, yes HTTP is stateless. what you can do is create a cookie, and update it with current location/time value of the player, constantly. This way, when you go to any other page you can read time/location from cookie.
otherwise, in a cookie less approach, sending AJAXed location/time data back-forth server-client will be too much network.
If I was doing this, I would have gone cookie way.
I'm just starting on a Chrome extension. I want it to load a popup element whenever the browser loads a Facebook url.
Is this possible? And how? // ANSWERED.
Okay, then.
Now, I now how to make an extension that drops down in a small window at the top right of the page beneath the extension icons. *But how can I create a new div anywhere on the web page, like this buzzgrowl extension:http://buzzgrowl.com/ *?
Yep it's possible. You can trigger a popup in your javascript. Set it to work only on facebook.com.
You can also do javascript checking of the url via window.location.
I have a music player swf embedded on an html page. Is there any way to have the music continuously play, even when the different html pages are loaded? When a link is clicked, the page is refreshed, also restarting the swf(music).
If the site was AJAX driven, this wouldn't be a problem, but all my pages are static. I suppose I could put the entire body in an iframe, but there has to be a better option. I am certainly open to the idea of using ajax here, but I do not have much ajax experience. Any ideas?
Ajax is really not that hard to learn, use it.
If you reload another page or the same page with a normal link, you will lose your current status in your embedded player. So you either have to use a non-standard link-mechanism, separate your player from the page or save your current status on change of the page. Your options basically are:
Use Ajax and never actually load a new page, but only new content (<- best solution, imho)
Use the standard link mechanism, but do it in an iframe, the player runs in a parent page (I agree with you, that wouldn't be nice)
Load the player in a new Window, put it in the background or something. This might be better than the iframe-solution, but you might get some difficulties with popup-blockers. Remember to close your popup when the user leaves your page.
Save the status of the player in a cookie whenever a link is clicked. On pageload check for the cookie and continue playing at the saved position. This will result in small breaks during playback and you need to be able to interact with the music player.
