Martin — The iframed page (example.html) creates another iframe pointing to pipe.html. That’s where setDimensions() is called.

Sorry Daniel — If I understand you correctly, there’s no way to do exactly that.

To be clear, the child iframe can pass information to the parent, and that’s all. The parent can’t initiate it or request information or anything.

In other words, you need to have control of (or have the ear of the person who has control of) the iframe’s contents. They can then pass data to the parent using a child in the same domain, as described above.

As a precursor to trying an iframey route, does your method allow the parent site, say mine.html to access a child frame’s (theirs.html) details like the frame’s document height?

Basically I would like to find the computed height of the document in the theirs.html iframe inside of my page. I am framing a couple of sites for my users like their flicker page and another. Can I effectively get the height of that iframed document so as to resize the iframe to accommodate its content?

Fingers crossed!

Wow…you’re right. That’s nerdy. You know, if you give a drinking value to each non-numeric card, after a while there’s skill involved in being able to hold your liquor better than the other guy, and still play.

I TOTALLY had a Buick Skylar. Only mine was custom and from 1988. It was RAD - especially with the Oakley sticker on the back window.

Yeah, you told me about Drew Hayes last time you visited — that sucks. I’ve still got a bunch of PE comics — I don’t know where I dropped off, but I should probably try to finish the collection at some point.

I don’t recall which SY song in particular you are referring to, but there’s only 3 songs or so from that album that Kim Gordon sings on.

Speaking of A Thousand Leaves — that album brings back a ton of memories, as well as bringing me back to a particular state of mind. Easily still my favorite SY albums, if not my favorite album period.

Heh, it is funny what music will make you remember. Music is likely to remind me of game I played. For some reason listening to U2’s POP album reminds me of playing Duke Nukem and listening to certain songs on The Cure’s Wish reminds me of playing D&D in highschool. SY Thousand Leaves song (don’t know the name of the song but it has Gordan singing something about a train) reminds me of staying up past 12 while you and J created music.

Also, just in case you didn’t know Drew Hayes died a few years ago. They released the last issue of Poison Elves toward the beginning of the year which was a tribute to Drew and what he planned on doing with the series.
