How would you be able to make a button (in xslt) that can be placed on a website (html page). So when clicked (on the button) a iframe appears and displays for example a file of my choosings functions.php or any other html page.
At the moment i have no really a idea in what direction to look.
The idea is just to display some sort of score table(xml).
This file already has layout trough the xslt file.
At the moment everything is for local testing (localhost).
Best regards.

I was looking for a way to write a script that will download a file from a specific website but without opening the website itself. I want everything to happen in the background.
The website is morningstar and a specific link for the example is this one:
https://financials.morningstar.com/ratios/r.html?t=MSFT
in this page, there is a "Button" (it is not really declared as a button but as a Hyperlink, the <a> tag in HTML)
I added a photo in the bottom so you can see for yourself exactly the way they wrote the code.
Anyway, I saw that when I clicked the button the href attribute actually calls a javascript function which then creates the links from which the file will be downloaded.
I am looking for a way that I can write a script and give it the link I want, for example, the link above, and the script will download this specific CSV file from that page into a folder of my choice.
I was looking at some selenium tutorials but I couldn't find much help for my specific problem.
Here's an example I use:
import requests
url = 'http://via.placeholder.com/350x150'
dashboardFile = requests.get(url, allow_redirects=True)
open('d:/dev/projects/new-wave/dashboard.pdf', 'wb').write(dashboardFile .content)
Oh, and depending on the size of the file you would want to download in chunks. A quick search of: "python download large file in chunks" will help.
Hey so I'm making some software that will have 4 different steps.
load
edit item 1
edit item 2
submit to an online storage
Since item 1 and item 2 are large items to be edited I wanted a separate page.
I also wanted a separate page to submit both items so they know it's being submitted and user receives further instructions.
I used to just let it just redirect the user to the next page, but I found it took 2-5 seconds to load each page, and I rather have it a fluid process.
Since Im using electron.js I am using require to load the JS part of the webpages.
But cant find a way to load the HTML and load the JS parts that effect the HTML (JS needs the webpage's DOM).
I've attempted using Jquery but all I accomplished was getting the html in a string format.
Been trying to find a way to use ajax, but so far everywhere I've looked its for including the html into a different html page.
I am new to both Jquery and ajax and just looked at them today. So maybe I am missing something about them. But cannot find any tutorials/documentary for loading another page.
The system I am working on has a questionnaire in it and then shows the responses to the admin in a nice report on screen. I need to create functionality that turns the on screen report into a pdf, similar to how the browser generates a pdf of the page when you select print. Although I need to only turn a section of the page into pdf. And it would be ideal to be able to alter the HTML so that the pdf page breaks don't interfere with the presentation of the report.
You can download a pdf of how the report looks, generated by the browser functionality. This is just an example, I need the pdf to be generated by a link or button and not include the whole page (the top part in this case).
I have tried some php HTML to pdf generators, but it's difficult because the HTML is dynamically generated so I'm not sure how to send all the HTML, once rendered, to the page that creates the pdf.
To overcome the page breaks, I've considered using javascript or jquery to read the height of the div of each question within the report and then write a simple script to calculate if the next div will fit on the page and if not add a margin on top of that div so that it starts on a new page.
What software can I use to generate the pdf, given these requirements? Either php or javascript. Appreciate the help.
Have you considered Snappy for PHP? It makes use of wkhtmltopdf behind the curtains to convert any HTML document into PDF.
We are using it and it works great.

You could try mpdf and use the page-break-inside: avoid property which is actually a CSS property. I have not used this, but it might be what you're looking for.
Looks like you can add this property to the <div> and <table> tags (mPDF Supported CSS).
We are new to Umbraco and coding within it, so I thank you in advance for your patience and assistance.
In short, we created a 'test' page utilizing a colorbox pop-up to display a form. It works perfectly in the test page.
When trying to integrate the code into Umbraco, when the "Request Info" button is clicked, the form opens in a full page, and the colorbox does not display.
I would appreciate any assistance that you could provide.
Test link (working):

Example of a page where the "Request Info" button (yellow on right) opens full page, and NOT colorbox:

I've spent the entire weekend trying to find the solution, hoping to get this resolved ASAP.
Thank you in advance, I appreciate your time and assistance.
This looks like a problem with how you have implemented your script in Umbraco. Just looking through Chrome's browser inspector, I can see that your script is failing to find the colorbox objects which means that something is prevent the library from being available. This is usually because a dependent javascript library has failed.
Looking at your source code, you are loading all your jQuery libraries at the bottom of your page. This is good practice, but you have placed your a second jQuery file reference, your colorbox file references and the custom colorbox code in the head of the page.
There are several things you will need to do:
Remove the jQuery reference from the head of the page;
Move the colorbox file references to the bottom of the page, after all the other javascript file references. You can leave the colorbox CSS file reference in the head.
Move the custom colorbox code to after all the other javascript file references. I usually place this kind of code in a separate file.
Depending on your Umbraco implementation:
If you are using masterpages, use a ContentPlaceholder to allow templates to drop javascript file references into the bottom of the page;
If you are using MVC views, use a footer section to do the same
I have a classifieds website, and the index.html is just going to be a simle form, which uses javascript alot to populate drop lists etc...
I have a menu also, put into a div container, but is this enough?
I mean, I have no content in index.html (almost), but a search form, which submits to a search results page, where all the content is.
So I am worried google might not find suitable sitelinks for my site?
Anybody know if I need to add something to the links in the index.html, which google might use for sitelinks? title tags etc...?
Thanks
Instead of changing your site around you can just create a good sitemap.xml file. That is of course if you're using GET for transferring data to your processing page. I would create a dynamic sitemap.xml page that is based on the form data that your processing page can read.
