将JSON对象发布到iFrame

Question

I've seen different methods for posting data to an iframe but I can't find one where I can just send a JSON object. All the methods seem to require me to use form elements to put my data in.

Answer 1

Take a look at postMessage and use JSON.stringify for your message and JSON.parse in the event handler.

To actually post to a iframe you have to do

myIframe.contentWindow.postMessage(...)

fiddle

html

<button onclick="_sendMessage ()">Send</button>
<iframe src="" id="myIframe">​

javascript

var myIframe = document.getElementById('myIframe');
myIframe.contentWindow.addEventListener('message', function(event) {
    console.log(JSON.parse(event.data));
}, false);


window._sendMessage = function() {
    var json = {payload:'Hello World'};
    myIframe.contentWindow.postMessage(JSON.stringify(json), '*');
}​

You can use the Porthole JS library. It describes itself as a "JavaScript Library for Secure Cross Domain iFrame Communication" .

It uses postMessage() if available, but reverts to a "hidden proxy" workaround for browsers that don't.
