Making an iframe responsive

Question

I was reading this stackoverflow post titled  Can you make an iFrame responsive    and one of the comments answers led me to this jfiddle   But when I tried to implement the HTML and CSS to fit my needs  I didn t have the same results success  I created my own JS fiddle so I could show you how it doesn t work the same for me  I m sure it has something to do with the type of iFrame I m using  e g   the product images might need to be responsive too or something    My main concern is that when my blog readers visit my blog on their iPhone  I don t want everything to be at x width  100  for all my content  and then the iFrame misbehaves and is the only element wider  and hence sticks out past all the other content - if that makes sense     Anyway  does anyone know why it s not working  thank you   here is the HTML  amp  CSS of MY JSFIDDLE  if you don t want to click on the link     lt div class  wrapper  gt     lt div class  h iframe  gt       lt  -- a transparent image is preferable -- gt       lt img class  ratio  src  http   www brightontheday com wp-content uploads 2013 07 placeholder300 png    gt       lt iframe frameborder  0  height  465px  width  470px  scrolling  no  src  http   currentlyobsessed me api v1 get widget wid 30 amp blog Brighton The Day amp widgetid 38585        frameborder  0  allowfullscreen gt  lt  iframe gt     lt  div gt   lt  div gt    and here is the accompanying CSS    wrapper     width  100     height  100     margin  0 auto    background   ffffff      h iframe     position  relative      h iframe  ratio     display  block    width  100     height  auto      h iframe iframe     position  absolute    top  0    left  0    width  100     height  100

iframes cannot be responsive  You can make the iframe container responsive but not the content it is displaying since it is a webpage that has its own set height and width   The example fiddle link works because it s displaying an embedded youtube video link that does not have a size declared

DA is right  In your own fiddle  the iframe is indeed responsive  You can verify that in firebug by checking iframe box-sizing  But some elements inside that iframe is not responsive  so they  stick out  when window size is small  For example  div products-post-wrapper s width is 8800px

I noticed that leowebdev s post did seem to work on my end  however  it did knock out two elements of the site that I am trying to make   the scrolling and the footer   The scrolling I got back by adding a          scrolling  yes  To the iframe embed code   I am not sure if the footer is automatically knocked out because of the responsiveness or not  but hopefully someone else knows that answer

If you happen to be using the Bootstrap CSS library  you can use the responsive embed classes that it provides   lt div class  quot embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9 quot  gt     lt iframe class  quot embed-responsive-item quot  src  quot https   www youtube com embed zpOULjyy-n8 rel 0 quot  allowfullscreen gt  lt  iframe gt   lt  div gt   Several different aspect ratios are supported  see the documentation

Getting Started  Due to browser security constraints  you will have to include the Javascript file both in the    parent    page  as well as in the page being embedded through an iframe     child       In the current version  the parent page must include the latest version of jQuery  There is no dependency on jQuery for the child page functionality  In future versions  we would like to remove the dependency on jQuery for the parent as well   Note  the    xdomain    parameter in the makeResponsive   function call is optional   Code Sample   lt  -- Activate responsiveness in the  child  page -- gt  lt script src   js jquery responsiveiframe js  gt  lt  script gt  lt script gt   var ri   responsiveIframe     ri allowResponsiveEmbedding    lt  script gt    lt  -- Corresponding code in the  parent  page -- gt  lt script src   js jquery js  gt  lt  script gt  lt script src   js jquery responsiveiframe js  gt  lt  script gt  lt script gt     function                      function               myIframeID   responsiveIframe   xdomain                              jQuery   lt  script gt

The code below will make the fixed width content of a non-responsive website within an iframe resize to the viewport width  only if its width is larger than the viewport width  For demo purposes the website is a single image 800 pixels wide  You can test by resizing your browser window or load the page in your phone   lt head gt   lt meta name  quot viewport quot  content  quot width device-width  initial-scale 1 quot  gt   lt style gt  body  html  width  100   height  100   margin  0  padding  0  iframe  width  100   transform-origin  left top    imgbox text-align center display block    lt  style gt   lt script type  quot text javascript quot  src  quot http   code jquery com jquery-1 11 1 js quot  gt  lt  script gt      lt script gt  jQuery document  ready function         nsZoomZoom           window  resize function             nsZoomZoom                function nsZoomZoom            htmlWidth      html   innerWidth            iframeWidth   800          if  htmlWidth  gt  iframeWidth              scale   1          else               scale   htmlWidth    iframeWidth                         quot iframe quot   css  transform    scale     scale                    quot iframe quot   css  width    800                 lt  script gt   lt  head gt   lt body gt   lt div class imgbox gt       lt iframe src  quot http   placekitten com g 800 600 quot  scrolling no width 800 height 600 frameborder no gt  lt  iframe gt   lt  div gt   lt  body gt

Fully responsive iFrame for situations where aspect ratio is unknown and content in the iFrame is fully responsive    None of the above solutions worked for my need  which was to create a fully responsive iFrame that had fully responsive dynamic content inside of it  Maintaining any kind of aspect ratio was not an option     Get height of your navigation bar and any content ABOVE or BELOW the iFrame  In my case I only needed to subtract the top navbar and I wanted the iFrame to fill all the way down to the bottom of the screen     Code    function getWindowHeight             console log  Get Window Height Called           var currentWindowHeight     window  height            var iFrame   document getElementById  myframe           var frameHeight   currentWindowHeight - 95          iFrame height   frameHeight            Timeout to prevent function from repeatedly firing     var doit      window onresize   function          clearTimeout doit         doit   setTimeout resizedw  100            I also created a timeout so that on resize the function wouldn t get called a million times

Simple  with CSS   iframe  width  100   max-width  800px   this can be anything you wish  to show  as default size       Please  note  But it won t make the content inside it responsive   2nd EDIT   There are two types of responsive iframes  depending on their inner content    one that is when the inside of the iframe only contains a video or an image or many vertically positioned  for which the above two-rows of CSS code is almost completely enough  and the aspect ratio has meaning     and the other is the   contact registration form type of content  where not the aspect ratio do we have to keep  but to prevent the scrollbar from appearing  and the content under-flowing the container  On mobile you don t see the scrollbar  you just scroll until you see the content  of the iframe   Of course you give it at least some kind of height  to make the content height adapt to the vertical space occurring on a narrower screen - with media queries  like  for example    media  max-width  640px   iframe  height  1200px   whatever you need  to make the scrollbar hide on testing  and the content of the iframe reveal  on mobile phone or other target devices          media  max-width  420px   iframe  height  1600px   and so on until and as needed
