Hello everyone,

Alright, I think it's hard to write my trouble here,

so, please visit : https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_js_element_iframe

And then just replace those code with these :

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<iframe id="myFrame" src="/default.asp" style="height:380px;width:100%"></iframe>

<p>Click the on the iframe to change w3schools background color</p>

<script>
document.getElementById("myFrame").contentWindow.onclick = test;
function test() {
  var iframe = document.getElementById("myFrame");
  var elmnt = iframe.contentWindow;
  elmnt.document.body.style.backgroundColor = "yellow";
}
</script>

</body>
</html>

These code runs well when I clicked on iframe once, but after I clicked another link page eg : Learn HTML

these code didn't work. it looks if iframe / browser unable to caught event (onclick).

Q : How to fix so that event still able to catch by contentWidth , though user click another link page?

please help me.

Thanks

If someone clicks a link outside of the iframe then that is going to change the page that contains the iframe, so yeah the entire page changes.  Unless the link specifically targets the iframe to load the URL, in that case then only the iframe will change (which means all event listeners inside the iframe will also be reset).  If someone clicks a link inside the iframe then the default behavior is to just change the iframe, again unless they tell it to load the URL in the parent page.

Hello, thanks for reply

Q : Which URL? did u mean URL from page inside iframe? 

how about if put some script inside the iframe like this :

<iframe id="myFrame" src="/default.asp" style="height:380px;width:100%">
<script>
document.getElementById("myFrame").contentWindow.onclick = test;
function test() {
  var iframe = document.getElementById("myFrame");
  var elmnt = iframe.contentWindow;
  elmnt.document.body.style.backgroundColor = "yellow";
}
</script>
</iframe>

please help

Content like that is not allowed inside an iframe.  The only content that goes inside an iframe is some message to show someone whose browser does not support the iframe.

If you put that outside of the iframe, then it should add a click event to the document inside that will be there unless it gets overwritten by something in the iframe, or until someone clicks a link a the page in the iframe refreshes.
