The onselect must be onclick   This will work for keyboard users     I would also recommend adding  lt label gt  tags to the text of  Day    Month   and  Year  to make them easier to click on   Example code    lt input id  day  name  calendarSelection  type  radio  onclick  go  http   calendar zoho com embed 9a6054c98fd2ad4047021cff76fee38773c34a35234fa42d426b9510864356a68cabcad57cbbb1a0 title Kevin Calendar amp type 1 amp l en amp tz America Los Angeles amp sh  0 0  amp v 1     gt  lt label for  day  gt Day lt  label gt    I would also recommend removing the spaces between the attribute onclick and the value  although it can be parsed by browsers    lt input name  calendarSelection  type  radio  onclick    go  http   calendar zoho com embed 9a6054c98fd2ad4047021cff76fee38773c34a35234fa42d426b9510864356a68cabcad57cbbb1a0 title Kevin Calendar amp type 1 amp l en amp tz America Los Angeles amp sh  0 0  amp v 1     gt Day   Should be    lt input name  calendarSelection  type  radio  onclick  go  http   calendar zoho com embed 9a6054c98fd2ad4047021cff76fee38773c34a35234fa42d426b9510864356a68cabcad57cbbb1a0 title Kevin Calendar amp type 1 amp l en amp tz America Los Angeles amp sh  0 0  amp v 1     gt Day

Here s the jQuery way to do it       calendar   attr  src   loc

User · Answer

In this case  it s probably because you are using the wrong brackets here   document getElementById  calendar   src   loc    should be  document getElementById  calendar   src   loc

You can solve it by making the iframe in javascript      x000D   x000D    document write    lt iframe  id  frame  name  frame  src      srcstring      width  600   height  315    allowfullscreen gt  lt  iframe gt     x000D   x000D   x000D
