I have a classic report generated by Oracle Apex 4.0. I have customized it to have a hyperlink on each record, which when clicked opens a detail report in an iframe right under the current record. This, I am doing by using the Javascript insertRow method on the html table element (Condensed Javascript code below)
var pTable= html_CascadeUpTill(t,'TABLE');
var myNewRow = pTable.insertRow(pTR.rowIndex+1);
var myNewCell = myNewRow.insertCell(0);
myNewCell.innerHTML = '<iframe src="detail report url" height="0"></iframe>';
In order to resize the height of the iFrame that is different for different detail records, I have the following code in the "Execute when Page Loads" section of the report
$('iframe').load(function()
{
setTimeout(iResize, 1000);
}
function iResize()
{
// Iterate through all iframes in the page.
for (var i = 0, j = iFrames.length; i < j; i++)
{
var y=(iFrames.contentWindow || iFrames[i].contentDocument);
if (y.document)y=y.document;
var docHt = getDocHeight(y);
if (docHt) iFrames[i].height = docHt + "px";
}
}
);
Without the setTimeout call to iResize function, the iframe resize is not happening. But this setTimeout is adding a delay in the resized iframe to appear which I want to avoid. Is there a way to do this? All the related posts/articles I have seen online deal with iframes that are built into the page but not generated on-the-fly as in my case.
Let me know if you need more information. Please help. Thank you.
