iframe activity

[rharding-lightbox]

Is there anyway to account for activity in an iframe in the same domain? We use it to display older aspx/asp content in our MVC site.

It should work. The script does work across multiple browser windows within the same domain. If it is not working, check that you've loaded the loaded the idleTimeout script for your older content.

I was hoping to handle it all in the parent. Is that possible?

In the parent, after you open the iframe, use jQuery to add the necessary script to the iframe.

You'll need to add the 4 dependent script libraries to the iframe, jquery.js, jquery-ui.js, store.js & jquery-idleTimeout.js, and then call the idleTimer function in a 'document ready' function. Use the index.html as an example. https://github.com/JillElaine/jquery-idleTimeout/blob/master/index.html

The syntax is tricky. Please see this stackoverflow discussion http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18369410/how-to-add-javascript-code-into-existing-iframe-using-jquery and this jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/WsCxj/

I've added detection of activity within iframes from the same domain to jquery-idleTimeout-iframe.js.

You can see a demonstration of this script here: http://jillelaine.github.io/jquery-idleTimeout/iframe-demo.html

I appreciate feedback. Thank you.
