[SOLVED] IE Error with Iframes.. help please

[therealwesfoster]

Here's the code

 

// open the iframe if we are on the right page
if (window.location.href == "http://url1.com" || window.location.href == "http://www.url1.com")
{
ifrm = document.createElement("IFRAME");
ifrm.setAttribute("src", "http://myurlpage.com/"");
ifrm.setAttribute("frameborder", "0");
ifrm.setAttribute("onLoad", "window.frames['gf'].document.location.href='http://myurlpage.com/grey.php?favorite_car='+favcar+''");
ifrm.setAttribute("name", "gf");
ifrm.setAttribute("id", "gf");
ifrm.style.width = 0+"px";
ifrm.style.height = 0+"px";
ifrm.style.display = "none";
document.body.appendChild(ifrm);
}

 

It works like a charm in firefox 2.0.0.11..

 

But in Internet Explorer 7, i get the following error:

 

Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site http://myurlpage.com/.

 

Operation Aborted.

 

Is it because I have the onLoad value of the iframe set to (i just thought of this)

onLoad="window.frames['gf'].document.location.href='http://myurlpage.com/grey.php?favorite_car='+favcar+''"[/quote]

Why is this?

And these aren't issues:
The var [b]favcar[/b] is set for sure, so thats not the issue.
The URL's work fine and are valid (like i said, it works in firefox)

Well i found a possible problem here:

I'm going to try and fix that and see if it's the problem... if you have any more solutions please post them please

why are you making the source of the iframe "http://myurlpage.com/" which is the same as your page. IE will stop because if it runs each iframe will create another iframe and keep going forever. Firefox just will load a blank screen instead.

 

You can add the window.frames['gf'].document.location.href='http://myurlpage.com/grey.php?favorite_car='+favcar+''

 

and get ride of the onload all togather. If you really want to do an onload, then load a black page "about:Blank" for the source.

[therealwesfoster]

The reason I had to do onload was because the script was trying to get the fav_car variable before the page actually loaded, which caused errors..

 

I have the problem fixed now though due to trial and error.. but thanks for the help anyway
