I have a form that is inside of an iframe and I need to make sure that form submits to the parent of the iframe. Target="_top" and target="_parent" isn't working and I am starting to get a little bit aggravated with myself.
If anyone can point me in the right direction that'd be awesome. :)
I have a normal iframe with the src to an html page - that html page goes has this...
<form action="#" method="post" target="_parent" >
<table id="Table_01" width="308" height="411" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td colspan="6">
<img src="index_01.png" width="308" height="163" alt=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" rowspan="4">
<img src="index_02.png" width="112" height="142" alt=""></td>
<td colspan="3" style="background-image: url('optin_name.png');" width="189" height="40" alt="">
<input type="text" name="name" style="background: transparent;border:0px;font-size:25px;width:185px;height:37px">
</td>
<td rowspan="6">
<img src="index_04.png" width="7" height="247" alt=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="3">
<img src="index_05.png" width="189" height="33" alt=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" style="background-image: url('optin_email.png');" width="188" height="40" alt="">
<input type="text" name="email" style="background: transparent;font-size:25px;border:0px;width:185px;height:37px;">
</td>
<td rowspan="4">
<img src="index_07.png" width="1" height="174" alt=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<img src="index_08.png" width="188" height="29" alt=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td rowspan="2">
<img src="index_09.png" width="73" height="105" alt=""></td>
<td colspan="2" style="background-image: url('optin_submit.png');" width="174" height="54" alt="">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value=" " style="background: transparent;border:0px;width:170px;height:50px;">
</td>
<td rowspan="2">
<img src="index_11.png" width="53" height="105" alt=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<img src="index_12.png" width="174" height="51" alt=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<img src="spacer.gif" width="73" height="1" alt=""></td>
<td>
<img src="spacer.gif" width="39" height="1" alt=""></td>
<td>
<img src="spacer.gif" width="135" height="1" alt=""></td>
<td>
<img src="spacer.gif" width="53" height="1" alt=""></td>
<td>
<img src="spacer.gif" width="1" height="1" alt=""></td>
<td>
<img src="spacer.gif" width="7" height="1" alt=""></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
I cannot get it to post to the iframes parent windows opposed to in a new windows and/or inside the iframe itself, both are no no's.
Your action attribute in the form seems to be a problem. Which URL do you want to post your data to? Try replace the # in the action attribute with the target URL.
