Hi,

Not sure if has been asked before…
Is it possible to load a web page into a window — specifying an url as a parameter and using an IFRAME as a container?

Thx

Hello Lucian,

Yes, it is possible to have an iframe as a jqxWindow’s content.

That’s what I have expected indeed, although it’s not obvious in the source code.
I have a hunch how that might be possible but it’s better to ask for a POC. 🙂
If you could share a link to a demo would be great.

Thanks

Hi Lucian,

Here is an example on the matter:
```
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
    <title>jQuery Window CSS Styling Sample</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="../../jqwidgets/styles/jqx.base.css" type="text/css" />
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="../../jqwidgets/styles/jqx.summer.css" type="text/css" />
    <script type="text/javascript" src="../../scripts/jquery-1.8.2.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="../../jqwidgets/jqxcore.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="../../jqwidgets/jqxwindow.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function () {
            $("#jqxwindow").jqxWindow({ height: 500, width: 500, theme: 'summer' });
            $("#jqxwindow").jqxWindow('setContent', '<iframe src="http://www.jqwidgets.com/" width="100%" height="100%"></iframe>');
        });
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <div id='jqxwindow'>
        <div>
            Header</div>
        <div id='content'>
        </div>
    </div>
</body>
</html>
```

I thought so, but I wasn’t sure about how to call setContent. Let’s say I’ve seen something like this before in the jQuery world. 🙂
Next… can we use the property initContent to achieve the same thing? How?

Now.. I have to mention a little something I found awkward.
I hope you’re already addressing the way jqx api is called and work towards offering to developers a simple unified way of doing it.
What I mean is sometimes we’re supposed to call a method like this: $(“#jqxwindow”).jqxWindow(‘setContent’, ‘abc’);
while in other cases we should be using this syntax: $(‘#tab’).jqxTabs().show();
Why is that? 🙂

Hi Lucian,

For this purpose, initContent would not be apropriate. Use the setContent method instead.

As for your second question, the following is an incorrect expression:
```
$(‘#tab’).jqxTabs().show();
```
show() is a base jQuery method and to call it you need only a selector, i.e.:
```
$("#tab").show();
```
jQWidgets methods, on the other hand, are called this way:
```
$(“#jqxwindow”).jqxWindow(‘setContent’, ‘abc’);
```

Dimitar

That’s one mystery less.

Very much appreciated,
