To update an iframe using JavaScript, you can target the iframe element by its ID and then change its source attribute to the new URL you want to load. Here's an example:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 |
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Update Iframe with JavaScript</title>
</head>
<body>
<iframe id="myIframe" width="500" height="300" src="https://www.example.com"></iframe>
<button onclick="updateIframe()">Update Iframe</button>
<script>
function updateIframe() {
var iframe = document.getElementById('myIframe');
iframe.src = 'https://www.newexample.com';
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
|
In this example, we have an iframe with the ID "myIframe" and a button that calls the updateIframe() function when clicked. Inside the function, we target the iframe by its ID, and then update its src attribute to 'https://www.newexample.com'.
When the button is clicked, the iframe will be updated to display the new URL.
