Web Forms :: Way To Control Parent Page From An Iframe Page?
Jun 30, 2010
In order to use a third party API, I had to create a page that does not have form runat="server" in it. Because my app is using MasterPages and have a consistent look and feel throughout the application, though not too thrilled w/ the solution, I had to use iframe to embed this page into my app.It works fine but here's what I want to do. When the API call succeeds, I display a message and want to also place a hyperlink to send the user back to their home page. I think you see what I'm getting at by now. If I do this and the user clicks the link, it's all happening within the iframe.How do I send the user back to his home page and affect the whole page and not just the iframe page?
I have a webform named Default.aspx and in it an iFrame...
The iFrame will load one of a few different pages/forms/aspx... (for this example lets just say its test.aspx)
On test.aspx I have 2 buttons Button1 and Button2 If I have code in my test.aspx.vb for Button1 click of:
button2.text = "hello world"
it looks as if it reloads test.aspx inside the iFrame and sure enough Button2 states "hello world"
So now lets say on the Default.aspx I also have a button and its named Button5.
How would I go about updating the Button5.Text from with in the vb code of Button1 click/vb code located on Test.aspx
I have looked over some other post [URL] and the tell of using "PreviousPage" but that not seam to be what I need, I want to be able to state the page/form I want to effect a control on it...
I know how to do this in jut standard VB.net (not web) its like:
FromName.ControleName.Text = "Hello World" but then again in VB.net windows apps you dont have Iframse to deal with...

How to access the parent page elements of an Iframe. e.g. If i have a page index.htm and another page in an IFrame in index.htm and want to access the elements of index.htm from that IFrame.
I have a aspx page, in that page i have an Iframe. In the Iframe i do some stuff in code behind and when it is done I would like to do a postback from the aspx. In other words, Is it possible to do a postback programatically from the code behind of the iframe to the parent page?I think a postback can be done using "ClientScript.GetPostBackClientHyperlink(New Control(), String.Empty)" but that will only do a postback for the iframe i think.
My site has an iFrame that displays content from and second site. I don't control the second site. When a user clicks on a link in the iFrame, I want it to redirect the entire page, not just the iFrame. I've seen solutions for doing this from the iFrame, but I need to do it solely from the parent. I'd prefer to do it in the code behind, but a javascript solution would be acceptable.
So How I can call getResultData () from Child.aspx.cs by clicking Button on the parent page.
The main difficulty is that I can't use Javascript to collect the information from TextBoxes because the task is more complicated and I can use only server methods.
I have created one user control for changing the theme of the page where i have several buttons and on click of each button i am applying the theme of clicked buttons color and for that i have created several css files like red.css, blue.css , green.css etc.

I have an asp.net page that contains an Iframe embedded with some data and a ImageButton. On ImageButton click event (server side) I have Response.Redirct:
Response.Redirect("results.aspx");
This always open the results.aspx in iframe. I want that results.aspx should always open in the parent window. I tried the following till now but none worked:
Response.Redirect("<script language='javascript'>self.parent.location='results.aspx';</script>"); Response.Redirect("javascript:parent.change_parent_url('results.aspx');"); ..and also tried the options from [URL]
I have a web form called default.aspx which has a form with user information. In addition to this, I have an iFrame on the same page that displays a page Secondary-Form.aspx that has a few additional dynamic data fields. I need to do two things.
1. I need to pass the parent form data in real time to the iFrame page to refresh its content and modify it's fields accordingly. Example: If the user submits their Vehicle Choice as Car on parent form, the form item in iFrame will display a radio button that says Honda, and if the user submits their Vehicle Choice as MotorCycle in the parent page, the iFrame will display Harley Davidson as the radio button choice
2. The submit button is on the parent page. I want both pieces of this information (from the parent page, as well as iFrame selection) to be passed to a server side ASPX page to process this information.the default.aspx and Secondary-Form.aspx files are located on different domains.
i would like to ask about how can i open user control page when i click a button on parent page, also, can i call parent's method from user control page and then refresh parent page?
The application.aspx page contains a multiview, and the applicant1 user control is in one of the views. The button continue takes the visitor to the next view which contains another user control of text boxes.
I want to write validation code on the continue_Click event which is in the application.aspx.cs page. Ideally, from the application.aspx.cs code behind page, I want to get the user input from a text box in applicant1.
Intellicense cannot seem to find any of the text boxes in applicant1 from application.aspx.cs.
Basically, I have a user control with a set of input controls such as textboxes and radio buttons. It also has a button along with these controls. What I want is that when the user clicks this particular button, the data entered in the input fields must get updated into a grid in the parent page.
how to call a function of user control from the parent page?
I have a user control inside of default.aspx page, And I have a function in the code behind of user control. I need to call that function from a code behind of default.aspx
Is it possible to do this? Or do I need to make a server control for this functionality? I have it being able to be set in the Page_Init, but I'd like to make it as similar to actual controls as possible. Also, if it is possible to access via the Events section under Properties, that would be good and 2. I am trying to register the web user control as an AsyncPostbackTrigger for another UpdatePanel. With the previous question in mind, is it also possible to set this via the GUI, or does this need to be set programmatically as well?
