Hi Guys, I need to close an instance of prettyPhoto from within the iframe it's launched, without using the close button. I've tried using the api but am guessing it's out of scope within the launched iframe. I'd be grateful if anyone can help.

I'd like to the the same thing.

Example: A login page is loaded in the iframe with prettyPhoto, when the user is successfully logged in, I'd like the to redirect to a new page in the parent window and close the iframe.

At the moment, my site loads the redirected page in the iframe.. :(

Does anyone know how this can be achieved? Thanks.

If you want to close it by the click of a URL, it can be done by setting the target of the link:

More specifically what I'm trying to accomplish though is something similar to a php redirect opening up in the parent window, rather than in the iframe. So that the user doesn't have to click a link, or close for the window to go away.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

parent.window.location.href="index.php";

or do this Register
good luck

Same problem here with asp though, where would I insert parent.window.location.href="index.php";

Kind regards

Hi,
Ive got this working - its quite straight forward
from the page in the iFrame if they click a link or button call some javascript

window.parent.closeTheIFrameImDone();

Then in your parent page (The page that kicked off the iframe) have a javascript function thus

function closeTheIFrameImDone()
{
jQuery.prettyPhoto.close();

// Now crack on with whatever
}

This is also an easy way for the child page to send values back to the parent page just give the closeTheIFrameImDone function some parameters

Hope this helps

Hi, thanks for your reply, I managed to get it going with this isnide the iframe.

window.top.location = 'parentwindow.asp';

All sorted

For vb.net I was able to do this onclick
ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(Me.GetType(), "Redirect", "parent.window.location.href='default.aspx';", True)

Register a script in your parent document (the one hosting the prettyphoto box)

function closeBox() {
$.prettyPhoto.close();
}

To call it from the iframe
<a href="#" onclick="window.top.closeBox();">Close</a>

Michael, thanks a lot, that helped

No needing to create function. Close your pretty from the iframe with :
Close
