Open link in iframe? - javascript

How can I make it so that when I click on another page in an iframed it opens within the iframe? I own both the website being iframed and the site with the iframe, so if I need to do something with the configuration of either that is fine. Thanks for your time!

That is the default behaviour.
So don't:
Use JavaScript to trigger non-standard link behaviour
Use a target attribute on the link
Use a target attribute on a <base> element
Use an CSP to block the page from being loaded in a frame
Use an X-Frame-Options header to block the page from being loaded in a frame

On the site that you are embedding the iframe on, enter this code:
<iframe src="Your iframe url" width="100%" height="100%" name="search_iframe"></iframe>
On the site within the iframe insert this code, and make sure the url is the other link you want to redirect to in the iframe:
<html>Link_name</html>
This should let you redirect in an iframe, but remember to add the href code for each link, otherwise it will open the link outside of the iframe.

I want to click on a link inside iframe onload with the help of JavaScript, I have a site loading inside an iframe, now I want to click a link of a particular div (ID) on page load. The link is inside the iframe.
Actually I'm trying to change the language of the website which is loading in the iframe, the site has gtranslate plugin installed and has different language flag at the footer of the site.
Basically is it possible to force a page to be translated when the page loads?
The Same Origin Policy prevents you from scripting an Iframe from a different domain.

Force iframe link to open in same iframe

I'm using iframe to open a website in html.
However, many target attributes are _blank and _top in the website.
Therefore, the pages always open in a new window.
How to force the link open in same inframe in html?
My code below:
<iframe name="inapp" frameborder="0" src="http://www.w3schools.com" target="_self"></iframe>
I'm afraid you can't if you are embedding a page from another website. There's strict cross-domain security measures in browser to prevent your page from accessing the contents of the iFrame.
If you have control over the underlying page, then that's different, but I guess you wouldn't have the target issue in the first place.

How to load webpage in an iframe on click of a link of another iframe

I have two iframes (say 1 & 2) in a webpage. In the iframe1, I have a hyperlink on click of which, I want to load another webpage in the iframe2.
Can you please tell me whether loading a page from one iframe to another is possible and if so, please help in doing it. Thanks.
Note: all the web pages that I am considering here are in same domain.
use the name attribute on your iframes
then use target on your links
<iframe name='mydetails' src='someSrc.html'></iframe>
in your other iframe
<a href='details.html target='mydetails'>My details</a>

Cancel a link event in iframe that has a target="_parent" attribute

I have an iframe that shows a website on another domain that has links in it that have target="_parent" attributes. So instead of loading the link in the iframe, it redirects the whole page. Is there a way to catch this event, cancel it, and set the iframe's url to that link using jQuery or just straight javascript?
With browsers that support it, the best you could do is to use the sandbox-attribute:
<iframe sandbox="allow-forms allow-scripts allow-same-origin"></iframe>
The iframe is not allowed to change the top location now unless you list "allow-top-navigation" in the attribute.
But instead of the link working in the iframe, the links don't work at all and a security error is logged in console:
