multiple remote

[seaapple]

Hello,

How can I send resize information to the same iframe from two web pages? it seems that the "remote" url variable needs to be hard coded at setup time.

I'm using easyXdm socket to resize an iframe. It seems to be working on first load of the page. But I can't get it to resize when a new link is clicked from inside the iframe. Specifically when a user switches from a calendar view at 800 px high to a list view which might be 3000px high. So the new url might go from http://www.mysite.com/calendar_view/ to http://www.mysite.com/list_view/
Both pages will send back the hight information for the resize. That part is working. The problem is that the setup for the page has the remote variable hard set to http://www.mysite.com/calendar_view/ when the socket is created. So it will ignore messages sent from http://www.mysite.com/list_view/

var calendar_setup = {
remote: "http://www.mysite.com/calendar_view/",
container: document.getElementById("iframeContainer"),
onMessage: function(message, origin){
alert('test.page got the message from calendar' + message);
this.container.getElementsByTagName("iframe")[0].style.height = message + "px";
this.container.getElementsByTagName("iframe")[0].style.width = "800px";
}
};

var calendar_socket = new easyXDM.Socket(calendar_setup);
var runSocketMessenger = function() { calendar_socket.postMessage(); }

You'll need to use an intermediary, or sibling frame to allow this - a
search on this list should yield several examples I think. Sibling is
definitely best, with your child page calling
parent.xdmiframename.resizeMe. that way the xdm frame is persistent while
your visible frame changes.
