When you append any Google Sheet URL with "&rm=minimal" (omitting the double quotes) - the Sheet will very nicely render in any browser without the Tool Bar or Formula bar.
This frees up a lot of space and is great for applications where you don't want/need those screen elements - and you just want users to see the sheet.
However, I have a couple of onOpen commands in my associated script which does not run in a sheet whose URL has been modified with "&rm=minimal"
function onOpen() {
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange('test!A1').clearContent();
SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getRange('test!A15').clearContent();
}
Does anyone know why this is happening -- and if there is a workaround?
The fix for this is to add another iframe along with the original in html:
<iframe
src="<url to the spreadsheet without the ?rm=minimal query>"
style="visibility:hidden; position: absolute;"
>
</iframe>
Using Google Documents iframes in Web Applications have a lot of caveats, another one is that it resets scroll to top by each page refresh for example.

I want to manipulate a youtube video to autoplay and loop using js/jquery. It seems my issues stem from the from the fact that my site is on a CMS (Drupal), and it already spits out the iframe. So it's not an empty div that gets replaced as per the documentation.
The first thing I did was to change some settings on my site to ensure that "enablejsapi=1" and an ID was included in the output for whatever spits out the iframe.
I thought that would suffice and I'd only need to reference that ID in the onYouTubeIframeAPIReady(); function. But it wasn't working.
I looked at these solutions as well:
Listening for Youtube Event with this http://jsfiddle.net/YzvXa/197 - It didn't quite work for me. The state change did seem to be working in the fiddle, but when I tried to add parameters it didn't. (I'm assuming parameters only work when applied on load/ready?)
Already embedded iframe not working with api with this http://jsfiddle.net/y89je0k8/ - I feel like this got me closer, as I was able to atleast autoplay and mute using event.target.playVideo().mute(); for the ready event. How ever setting parameters like controls: 0 etc didn't.
What confuses me is in the second solution, it only works when the js is "inline". In the fiddle it's actually written in the html box in a script tag, but if you move the script in the js box, it doesn't.
Still I do feel like the points stated in the second solution might point me in the right direction, but I'm stuck in how to move forward with it.
onPlayerReady will not fire the ready check on localhost.
Also when linking your youtube.js file it has to come after the iframe.
add ?enablejsapi=1
sometimes double linking in both player_api and iframe_api will also help
//< before www. not https://
placment is key.
Here's what I've tried:
I've addressed #1 by actually adding my js in the server
My script is linked just before the closing body tag (so it is after the iframe)
I have adjusted my cms' youtube handler (Media: Youtube for Drupal) to add this parameter on output
I have tried this but it didn't seem to make a difference
I am limited by this as I am bound to using https. Is this the deal breaker?
I do notice that when I add the standard code to load the the iframe api asynchronously in my js, the <script src="https://www.youtube.com/iframe_api"></script> and <script type="text/javascript" id="www-widgetapi-script" src="https://s.ytimg.com/yts/jsbin/www-widgetapi-vflC6bXIS/www-widgetapi.js" async=""></script> appears as the first items in <head>, instead of just directly after the iframe as it normally would. I'm unsure why this is happening, but what can I do to ensure it's in the correct place? Perhaps this is the source of the issue, if placement is the key?
What I want to achieve is this behaviour: https://codepen.io/cee-r/pen/PMaRJR, where the video accepts parameters set in js when the html markup is already:
<iframe id="player" title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ApXoWvfEYVU?enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="1" ></iframe>
instead of:
<div id="player"></div>
I have used the information on this site and at this page
https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1136920?hl=en
to add tracking on my outbound links (pictures and texts) at this page
http://virginialidar.com/index-2.html
I am trying to view them in Google Analytics (Reporting > Behavior > Events > Overview) but no clicks are showing up. I have visited the site and clicked the links may times to test. It has been about 72 hours since I added the code.
Can someone view source at http://virginialidar.com/index-2.html and see what I am doing wrong? I think it may be the image links
It looks like you've copied the "smart" quotes instead of the straight quotes. You currently have:
onclick=”trackOutboundLink(‘http://qcoherent.com/evaluation.html’); return false;"
When it should be...
onclick="trackOutboundLink('http://qcoherent.com/evaluation.html'); return false;"
situation:
form1.html has a button
clicking that button calls $.mobile.changePage('../site3/form2.html');
no problem here. all is as expected and the page is loaded. let's call that form2.html
form2.html has 2 sections:
(1) #SiteForm and
(2) #SiteSearched
clicking a button on #SiteForm should call $.mobile.changePage('../site3/form2.html#SiteSearched');
now here's the weird part.
if I load the page form2.html directly and press the button, it works and I see #SiteSearched JQM page.
but, if I start from form1.html, click the button to get to form2.html#SiteForm, then click the button, everything in the attached function executes, except the line calling $.mobile.changePage('../site3/form2.html#SiteSearched');
I know that part is loaded by AJAX by wouldn't the changePage command work?
(note: Form1 may have data filled into the form that I don't want to lose. Form2.html was meant to do a search and throw back the result to Form1 somehow, which is why I am doing things this way.)
You should read official jQuery Mobile documentation before posting here, everything is explained there, but let me give you a short explanation.
jQuery Mobile has two template solutions, one is multi page and second one is multi html. You already know that because you are mixing them. But, what you don't know is (from the perspective of AJAX page handling):
Only first HTML page is fully loaded into the DOM, everything is loaded, including the HEAD content. So if initial HTML page has several data-role="page" <div> containers, every one will load into the DOM.
But, every subsequent page is loaded only partially. Basically if you second, third ... page has more then one data-role="page" div containers only first one will load into the <DOM>. jQuery Mobile will discard everything else.
So in your case, if form2.html has:
(1) #SiteForm and
(2) #SiteSearched
jQuery Mobile will load only #SiteForm, #SiteSearched will get discarded.
Basically this line will not work:
$.mobile.changePage('../site3/form2.html#SiteSearched');
You can't nit pick specific pages in subsequent pages, as I told you. You can only use this:
$.mobile.changePage('../site3/form2.html');
And jQuery Mobile will show you first data-role="page" occurrence inside form2.html page.
Read more about this here and here.
how to navigate the data between pages in query mobile without using external library. I have searched on google but i can't get the proper answer which is working correctly.
Okay, so preferably do this:
In the page from which you want to pass set the sessionStorage item and in the other page get that item: (this works for persisting data untill the session is cleared)
window.sessionStorage.setItem("param1","12345");
window.sessionStorage.getItem("param1");
Or simply use data-param="12345" in the element (div, listview etc..):
<div id="divId" data-param1=""></div>
$("#divId").data("param1", "12345");
and read it in other page:
$("#divId").data("param1");
Is there a way to use an iframe, but still have the address bar change when clicking what's inside the iframe to what the page actually is? I want to have a horizontal bar at the top of the page with a music player that allows music to play while browsing the site. But I also want people to easily be able to bookmark the pages as well.
I've searched, but can't find the answer. Many are just looking to change what URL is loaded in the iframe...that's not what I want. I want the actual address bar displayed in the browser to update.
This sentence is here to help me reach the 30 character minimum. Ignore this and read the next sentence for your answer:
No.
UPDATE:
"Changing" and "Redirecting" are two different things. You need to clarify which it is. "Changing" the address bar is impossible.
"Redirecting" IS possible.
Clicking on a standard link from within an iframe will not affect the topmost window on its own. A quick example of a Javascript redirect within an iframe would be something like this:
TOP WINDOW:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<iframe src="http://yoursite.com/iframe_test.html" />
</body>
IFRAME TEST:
<html>
<head>
<script>
window.onload = ready;
function ready()
{
document.getElementById("link1").onclick = linkClick;
document.getElementById("link2").onclick = linkClick;
}
function linkClick(e)
{
e.preventDefault();
window.top.location.href = this.href;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a id="link1" href="http://youtube.com">Link1</a>
<a id="link2" href="http://facebook.com">Link2</a>
</body>
EXPLANATION:
Without the Javascript in place, what will happen when you click on a link in an iframe is that you will remain on the original page and the iframe will be redirected to the link you've clicked on. Using Javascript within an iframe in this fashion can force the topmost frame to redirect.
I would highly discourage relying on this in any way. It's sloppy programming in general, and I would stay away from iframes altogether if possible.
Yes, you can, but it's not a straightforward solution and it has some limitations
changing
You can use Web API messages and history API together to get what you want.
Example
Jsfiddle
redirecting
You can use the example above and replace the push history with a window.location.replace
Please consider the snippet as a hint to get what you want. The example above is not well thought for security (i.e. iframe script is sending messages to the parent, irrespective of its origin).
