I can't resize my fancybox, when I use ajax...
This is how my code looks like:
$(".button").click(function() {
var formData = $(this).closest('form').serializeArray();
formData.push({ name: this.name, value: this.value });
$.ajax({
type : "POST",
cache : false,
url : "<?php echo plugins_url(); ?>/kryssord-opplaster/opplasting/utfoerOppgave.php",
data : formData,
success : function(data) {
$.fancybox(data);
}
});
return false;
});
how do I resize the $.fancybox(data);?
I tried ".....$.fancybox(data, {'width': '50%', 'height': '75%'})..."
but that didn't work at all.. Thanks in advance!
Update:
Seems like I only had some errors in my HTML-code..
I had set <table><form></form></table> instead of <form><table></table></form>..
And somehow the way I've coded it now, if I set a stylesheet in the php-file (the url) it affects the page in the background as well.. So the best thing would be if I could get the ajax-page inside a iframe. However if I edit the fancybox-script to ..$.fancybox(data, {'type': 'iframe'}); i get a 403 error..
could someone help me modify the above code?
Try this, add this into html source <div id="successContainer"></div>
$("#successContainer").html(data);
$("#successContainer").fancybox({'width': '50%', 'height': '75%'});
Are you trying to resize it to a certain height and width, or just have it automatically resize to fit the content?
Try throwing this into the ajax success portion:
$.fancybox.resize();
Or try:
$.fancybox({'width': '50%', 'height': '75%'});
As for the update, I'm a little unclear of what you're trying to do, could you clarify? Why do you need the iframe?

Well, I don't know why you are complicating this fancybox thing like this,
Why do you need your 'thisElement' var? You should give us some more details to be sure we really understand what you need... I give you here some tips to open fancybox.. :
when you use fancybox, just start it like this :
//event function(){
$('.vid').click(function(){
$.fancybox({
//settings
'type' : 'iframe',
'width' : 640,
'height' : 480,
//You don't need your thisElement var, see below :
'href' : $(this).data('href')
});
});
and put your settings into it,
here is a starting point for you, now just customize it to make it better for your needs :
http://jsfiddle.net/rtp7dntc/9/
Hope it helps!
To make things much simpler you could use the special data-fancybox attributes on your div like
<div class="vid" data-fancybox-href="http://www.youtube.com/embed/gGFXXWsCiVo?autoplay=1" data-fancybox-type="iframe">This DIV should open fancybox</div>
Then use a script as simple as this
jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
$('.vid').fancybox();
}); // ready
See JSFIDDLE
NOTE:
The disadvantage of triggering fancybox programmatically as in the accepted answer is that it will only trigger a single fancybox but won't work for a gallery, while you can bind a fancybox gallery of several divs using the data-fancybox-group attribute.

Placing this at the top of my ajax.js worked for me
$.ajaxSetup( { cache : false } )
I'm trying to do a post preview, which will appears in a new Fancybox iframe. Since couple of weeks I'm looking for some help or best practices, but I can't find it.
My main problem is to pass the data from form (before updating database) to Fancybox window. My AJAX skills are very poor, so maybe my problem isn't so hard.
Please check the code:
$('.preview2').fancybox({
fitToView : false,
width : 905,
height : 505,
autoSize : false,
closeClick : false,
openEffect : 'none',
closeEffect : 'none',
ajax: {
type: "POST",
cache : false,
url: "preview.php",
data: $('#postp').serialize()
}
});
And a calling link:
<a class="preview2" data-fancybox-type="iframe" href="preview.php" id="preview2">Preview</a>
I'm almost sure everything is fine with preview.php file, just posting the variables and printing it in right places.
Can someone check Fancybox / AJAX part?
As I mentioned in my comments, your preview button should submit the form via ajax to get the POST preview values (we'll use ajax instead of iframe) so :
<a class="preview2" data-fancybox-type="ajax" href="preview.php" id="preview2">Preview</a>
Then you would need to bind the preview button to a manual on("click") method to submit the form via ajax firstly ....and then post the results in fancybox secondly like :
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.preview2').on("click", function (e) {
e.preventDefault(); // avoids calling preview.php
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
cache: false,
url: this.href, // preview.php
data: $("#postp").serializeArray(), // all form fields
success: function (data) {
// on success, post (preview) returned data in fancybox
$.fancybox(data, {
// fancybox API options
fitToView: false,
width: 905,
height: 505,
autoSize: false,
closeClick: false,
openEffect: 'none',
closeEffect: 'none'
}); // fancybox
} // success
}); // ajax
}); // on
}); // ready
See DEMO (feel free to explore the source code)
I don't like the solution, so I will post my own investigation.
Why writing code with 1. .on("click", ... 2. e.preventDefault 3. $.ajax 4. this.href just to call fancybox on success, that already has all this functions inside?
If you decide to use ajax instead of iframe (like in accepted answer) you could simply add type property to fancybox() call, cause it's beening checked, and pass all other
$('.preview2').fancybox({
type: "ajax",
ajax: {
data: $('#postp').serialize()
// url: "someurl.php" not needed here, it's taken from href
// if you need it, e.g. you have a button, not a link
// use "href" property that overrides everything
// not attribute, cause it's invalid
}
// href: "url_to_add_or_override_existing_one",
// all other effects
// afterLoad: function () { // other cool stuff }
});
EDIT As #JFK pointed it's not enough, you have to get form data each time you click the link, so beforeLoad() needed instead of data. Finnaly:
$('.preview2').fancybox({
type: "ajax",
beforeLoad: function() {
this.ajax.data = $('#postp').serialize();
}
});
You can remove all data-* atrributes too

I have tried a more interesting way with fancybox that works,
in the fancybox page
var myvar;
$(document).ready(function(){
myvar = parent.$("#formvariwant").val();
});
I have used Fancybox on multiple occasions and never run into this problem. I have included both jQuery and Fancybox files in the header, linked up the first order button the the page to open up an iframe in a Fancybox. However I cant seem to get it to work at all. It doesn't open an iframe and instead goes straight to the page I was trying to open inside the Fancybox iframe.
Can somebody point out whatever blindingly obvious mistake I've made this horrible Monday morn?
Testing server can be found here:
http://www.designti.me/testing/flipstick/original.php
The error message is: Uncaught TypeError: Object #<an Object> has no method 'fancybox'
Which implies that fancybox hasn't loaded. Taking a close look at your source we see <script type="text/x-ecmascript" src="js/fancybox/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.pack.js"></script> which you can see uses x-ecmascript rather than javascript. Change that and you should be fine.
You didn't put your code into the ready handler:
$(function() { // <-- you need this
$("a.iframe").fancybox({
//...
});
}); // <-- and this
Maybe to put it in document.ready?
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a.iframe").fancybox({
'width' : '75%',
'height' : '75%',
'autoScale' : false,
'transitionIn' : 'none',
'transitionOut' : 'none',
'type' : 'iframe'
});
});
Use this:
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery("a.iframe").fancybox({
'type' : 'iframe', //<--missing comma here
'width':750,
'height':500 //<-- removed last comma here
});
});
is it possible using fancybox to post a var to the iframe when opens?
I currently have:
function fancyBoxLoad(element) {
var elementToEdit = $("#" + $(element).attr("class"));
var content = encodeURIComponent($(elementToEdit).outerHTML());
$.fancybox(
{ 'href': 'loadEditor.php' },
{
frameWidth: 750,
frameHeight: 430,
overlayShow: true,
ajax: {
type: "POST",
data: 'content=' + content
},
type: 'iframe'
}
);
}
It does seem that if I take away type: 'iframe' it will post data but it doesn't appear to be in the iframe and if I take away ajax: { type: "POST", data: 'content=' + content } instead it will open in an iframe but not post the data (the example above does the same)
So my question being can it be done?
If you're simply trying to put content in a iframe, why don't you use fancybox to create the iframe, and once you know it's been created, then access it via the reference that fancybox returns to you and set your content that way. I'm not sure you want to send the content to the server and back. Just wait for the iframe to load, then on ready, query an element within it and set the content.
Looking at the source for Fancybox v1.3.1 they are in fact mutually exclusive. If you don't feel comfortable diving into the source code and editing the plugin, you might try using GET variables in your HREF as a work around. It should effectively work like a post as it is an AJAX call, just make sure the backend can receive the GET variables.
