GUI elements are not arranged in iframe

[Sebastian Krohn-Grimberghe]

Hello,

I’m trying to integrate a GUI into a HTML site by loading it into an iframe
with version 2.6. Up to version 2.5.2 this worked fine. But with version 2.6
the elements which are arranged depending on the map frame position (e.g.
navFrame and dragMapSize) are not arranged around the map. Instead they are
displayed on their initial position (e.g. top: 0, left: 0) and don’t work.
If I load the GUIs directly and not in an iframe everything works fine.
If the HTML file with the iframe is called from a different host than
Mapbender, firebug often displays an error message that the Mapbender host
doesn’t have the permission to read the attribute “Window.eventInitMap”. If
both runs on the same host I don’t get error messages from firebug, but
still the same elements are not arranged. It makes no difference whether I
use my own customized GUIs or the existing templates.
Does anyone know how I get all elements arranged correctly in the iframe
with version 2.6?

Best regards,
Sebastian Krohn-Grimberghe

I could not find a solution so far but I am still trying to. I will let you know if I make progress.

This is what I found out so far:

The elements causing the problems are overview, highlight_POI and zoomCoords. When I deactivate these elements, all other elements are arranged correctly and do work in the iframe (except for printPDF which makes use of overview, and the tools/buttons of the measure element).

I could also locate the functions in the code causing the problem. In all three cases it is related to event registrations:
ovnf.php : parent.eventInitMap.register(function init_overview(){…})
mod_highlightPOI.php: eventAfterMapRequest.register(function(){…})
mod_zoomCoords.php: parent.eventInitMap.register(function zoomCoorsInit(){…})

After removing these functions I can activate overview, highlight_POI and zoomCoords and the other elements are still working in the iframe. But of course by removing the code overview, highlight_POI and zoomCoords do not work correctly anymore.

Maybe one of the more advanced mapbender developers can help us here?

Best regards,
Sebastian

Hello,

for everyone interested in the solution...

The problem seems to be caused by unnecessary uses of the javascript "parent" element. E.g. if you make the following changes in javascript/ovnf.php, the overview works fine, both when the gui is loaded inside an iframe or loaded directly in the browser:

parent.eventInitMap.register(function init_overview(){ ...
must be changed to:
eventInitMap.register(function init_overview(){ ...

By the use of the "parent" element the script tries to perform the function outside the iframe and of course this fails.


By removing unnecessary "parent" elements I could also get all other tools to work with my GUIs inside an iframe (and they also still work when I load the gui directly). More examples:

javascript/mod_highlightPOI.php -> function mod_highlightPOI_draw():
var $div = parent.$("<div id='" + mapObject.elementName ...
change to:
var $div = $("<div id='" + mapObject.elementName ...


javascript/mod_measure.php -> function mod_closePolygon(), function mod_rubber(),function mod_getArea():
By removing every "parent." within onmouseup, onmouseover und onmouseout in these function, the measure tools displayed inside the map are working.

Best regards,
Sebastian

Hello together,

Congratulations for finding the problems solution. If this works fine in any case this code change should be integrated in a official mapbender release. Does anybody know if this is scheduled?

Hi,

yes, all modules are subsequently moved to support the new JavaScript
Api and module character. The used register functions are already
marked deprecated and will be replaced accordingly. This means each
module has to be revised and at least partially be rewritten, which is
still an ongoing effort at the moment.

Cheers, Michael
