How to embed a swf on top of a html page? - html

I want to embed a swf over a html page, like a floating video watching panel. I already have a swf file which will automatically adjust its size according to the browser size, and the swf file is partially transparent. I thought I can just add a div tag, make the position absolute and change z-index bigger, but that doesn't work because the swf just replaced everything that's on the page.
Here's what I did
<script>
swfobject.embedSWF("swf/float.swf", "header", "100%", "100%", "9.0.0");
</script>
<body bgcolor="#000000">
<div id="header"></div>
<div id="shell">
things in my html
</div>
</body>
#header {
position:absolute;
z-index:100;
}
Any idea? Thanks.

Once you get your sizing to work properly you will need to set the wmode to transparent to be able to see what's behind the flash, if you don't it's background will be opaque.
This is a quick copypaste from the swfobject docs, but it should get the point across:
<script type="text/javascript">
var flashvars = {};
var params = {wmode : "transparent"};
var attributes = {};
swfobject.embedSWF("myContent.swf", "myContent", "300", "120", "9.0.0","expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);
</script>

I believe the problem with this is that the CSS doesn't work well with <object /> tags. The swfobject.embedSWF turns the <div id="header"></div> into an <object /> tag with a bunch of attributes that might be effecting the CSS. If you create a wrapper DIV around the header DIV and apply the CSS to the wrapper DIV, everything works better. You also need to add 100% width and height in the CSS. Here's the revised source:
<script>
swfobject.embedSWF("swf/float.swf", "header", "100%", "100%", "9.0.0");
</script>
<body bgcolor="#000000">
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header"></div>
</div>
<div id="shell">
things in my html
</div>
</body>
#wrapper {
position:absolute;
z-index:100;
width:100%;
height:100%;
}

different page different color

Im trying to design this webpage with multiple pages. For example, when you scroll to the about page, its a different background color than the contact page. However, so far I only got the title of each page color. My webpage is where you scroll down it lands onto another page. I tried
#name{background-color:#ffffff;}
#Portfolio{background-color:#d5f4e6;}
#about{background-color:#fefbd8;}
#ContactMe{background-color:#ffffff;}
in the css style page based on its id. Any clue on how to get the different background color on different pages
html code:
<body id="Portfolio"></body>
<body id="about"></body>
<body id="Contact Me"></body>
When you say "multiple pages" it means "separate pages in separate files!" like "aboutpage.html" or "contact.html". In this case you can work with "body" tag:
<body id="about">
but then you said "when you scroll to the about page" that means "a page with different section that you can use like this:
<p id="about"></p>
<p id="contact"></p>
or
<div id="about"></div >
<div id="contact"></div>
You should specify that the elements containing your targets are 100vh height. With your (original posted) code you can do it like that:
body > div {min-height:100vh;}
This css will catch the container-* div that you use in the code you provide. I recomand continue learning the basics. Start here https://developer.mozilla.org/he/docs/Web/HTML
Enjoy code!
If it's a same page scroller, you should add
#Portfolio,#about,#ContactMe {min-height:100vh;}
To your css.
If you can provide the exact code its much easier to help you.
simple code
$(document).ready(function(){
startFromtop=$(".start").position().top
aboutFromtop=$(".about").position().top
contactFromtop=$(".contact").position().top
endFromtop=$(".end").position().top-100
$(window).scroll(function(){
windowformtop=$(this).scrollTop();
if(windowformtop>=startFromtop && windowformtop<aboutFromtop){
$(document.body).css("background-color","white")
}
else if(windowformtop>=aboutFromtop && windowformtop<contactFromtop){
$(document.body).css("background-color","red")
}else if(windowformtop>=contactFromtop && windowformtop<endFromtop){
$(document.body).css("background-color","green")
}else if(windowformtop>=endFromtop){
$(document.body).css("background-color","blue")
}
})
})
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<title></title>
<style type="text/css">
div{height:700px;border:2px solid red;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="start">Start</div>
<div class="about">ABOUT</div>
<div class="contact">CONTACT</div>
<div class="end">END PAGE</div>
</body>
</html>
Replace <body> with the <div> tag and add the appropriate css. The pages should have the same class but unique ids. You change the background color with CSS property background-color.
HTML:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<div class=“page”id=“portfolio”>
</div>
<div class=“page” id=“about”>
</div>
<div class=“page” id=“contactme”>
</div>
</body>
</html>
CSS:
.page{
position:relative;
width:100%;
height: auto;
margin:auto;
}
#portfolio{
background-color:white;
}
#about{
background-color:red;
}
#contactme{
background-color:blue;
}
Hope this works for you.

Make image size responsive inside iframe

I have an iframe on a page that will display an image file I am hosting.
I can make the iframe responive so that it get's larger or smaller depending on window size but am looking to have the actual image in the iframe scale to fit the iframe as opposed to having the scroll bars appear when the iframe gets smaller than the image. Is there a way to do this?
Below is the code I am working with where http://example.net/picture.jpg is the hosted image.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var frm = ['gallery', 'info'];
var hrf = ['http://example.com/', 'http://example.net/picture.jpg'];
function setSource() {
for(i=0, l=frm.length; i<l; i++) {
document.querySelector('iframe[name="'+frm[i]+'"]').src = hrf[i];
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<iframe src="" name="gallery"></iframe>
<iframe src="" name="info"></iframe>
<span onclick="javascript: setSource();">Click me</span>
</body>
</html>

Bootsrap Affix not working

I have added the library for Bootstrap and data-spy attribute where I want to make the div fix when I scroll the page down. But it doesn't work, I have almost tried everything, but not able to figure out the problem.
Is is something like the data-spy attribute doesn't work on class = "row" ?
Here's my code for HTML.
<div class="row">
<h4> HEADING </h4>
<h5>
<div class="row" data-spy="affix" data-offset-top="10">
dsds
Date : <input type="date" name="graph_date" id="graph_date">
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="graph-hourly">
<div class="loader" id="chart_loader">
<p>Loading...</p>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.gstatic.com/charts/loader.js"></script>
<div id="chart_hourly"></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
and some css :
.affix {
top : 0;
width: 80%;
}
after searching for some solutions, I've added this also,
.affix-top {
width: 100%;
}
.affix-bottom {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
}
but this solution also dosen't worked for me.
Not sure what the problem is in your case. I copied and pasted your code into a jsfiddle with the bootstrap library and the affix class did work. Though, it worked badly because it affixed the row right when you started scrolling.
Looks like Bootstrap doesn't have a way to set the offset to the current position of the element so I added the following javascript to make it work.
$('#affix-this').affix({
offset: {
top: $('#affix-this').offset().top
}
})
(#affix-this should be changed to the id of the row you want to affix.)
Note the $('#affix-this').offset().top. This makes sure the element gets affixed right when you reach the element's current position.
Second, I removed the html attributes that you had for the affixing.
<div class="row">
<h4> HEADING </h4>
<div class="row" id="affix-this">
dsds Date :
<input type="date" name="graph_date" id="graph_date">
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="graph-hourly">
<div class="loader" id="chart_loader">
<p>Loading...</p>
</div>
<div id="chart_hourly"></div>
</div>
</div>
Notice the affix-this id was added to the row that you want to affix.
Here is a working JSFiddle with these changes so you can see it in action: https://jsfiddle.net/heraldo/6s4u26m3/4/
First of all delete top:0; from affix class because it will make a issue for you.
now you have two methods pick a one :
1
adding data-spy="affix" which is works fine for me
2
same result ass data-spy but you will need some styling after you complete your page
by adding a position Property for input tag
as ex. :
CSS:
sticky{
position:fixed;
}
and HTML :
<input type="date" name="graph_date" class="sticky" id="graph_date">
Update 1
this Jquery code can detect a scroll event so when user scroll down it will make the div tag sticky or "affix"
$(function() {
$(window).scroll(function() {
var aTop = "100";
if ($(this).scrollTop() >= aTop) {
$('#affix-this').css( "position", "fixed" );
$('#affix-this').css( "top", "0" );
$('#affix-this').css( "width", "100%" );
}
});
});
change the aTop variable with the height you want (in pixel) so when the user scroll down 100px the div become sticky
a JSfiddle example
Update 1.1
a bit smarter Jquery code do the same but get the height automatically from a another element this can be good if you format your page to something similar to this
$(function() {
$(window).scroll(function() {
var aTop = $('id').height();
if ($(this).scrollTop() >= aTop) {
$('#affix-this').css( "position", "fixed" );
$('#affix-this').css( "top", "0" );
$('#affix-this').css( "width", "100%" );
}
});
});
Make sure the element to which you're adding data-spy="affix has been created in the DOM before your Bootstrap scripts load. I ran into an issue where I was adding data-spy="affix" in my HTML, but it was wrapped up in a section that wasn't rendering, thanks to data-ng-if. My HTML was created after my Bootstrap had loaded, so the <div> I wanted to stick to the top of the screen never stayed in a fixed position. If you can, use data-ng-show, or something that merely hides HTML, rather than prevents it from being created on page load.

Gnerate random div widths between 150px and 300px

Does anyone know how I would generate random div widths?
They would need to be between 150px and 300px.
The height of the div is not important as the content I'm going to put inside should automatically stretch them.
Thanks!
Currently using this code
<head>
<script type='text/javascript'>
$(document).ready(function(){
var x = Math.floor((Math.random()*150)+150);
$('#stat').width(x+'px');
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="stat" style="float:left; background-color: red;">hello</div>
</body>
using javascript's random() and some jquery you can do something like this:
$(document).ready(function(){
var x = Math.floor((Math.random()*150)+150);
$('div').width(x+'px');
});
<div>hello</div>

Iframe scrollbar align to right

There is a way to align the scroll bar from an iframe to right? its by default to left.
any idea?
take a look here i wanna see the search box when i load the page!
i have an application that has an ifram, in the ifram I'm loading a website that the search box is on the upper right, and i want that when the page loads i should be able to see the search box right away without having to scroll to the right.... something not clear?
can you use jquery? if yes, you can do the following:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<p>This is some text. This is some text. This is some text.
<div id="frame" style="width: 200px; height: 200px; overflow: scroll";>
<iframe src="http://www.w3schools.com/default.asp" width="1024" height="768" scrolling="no">
<p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
</iframe>
</div>
This is some text. This is some text. This is some text.</p>
<p>The align attribute was deprecated in HTML 4, and is not supported in HTML 4.01 Strict DTD or in XHTML 1.0 Strict DTD. Use CSS instead.</p>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
$("#frame").scrollTop(10).scrollLeft(750);
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
If you copy and paste the code into a html file and open it in your browser, you'll see that the iframe is automatically scroll to the very right.
The key changes are:
import jquery in your html file
add scrolling="no" to your iframe
specify the width and height of your iframe, it should be roughly the same as the actualy width & height of the embedded page
wrap your iframe in a <div>, be sure to specify the width & height (less than the iframe width & height)
add the javascript code before the closing </body> tag
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
$("#frame").scrollTop(10).scrollLeft(800);
});
</script>
