    How To: Resize Dashboard Web Page Widgets to Content?

    This application demonstrates how to adjust the height of a Web Page Widget on the dashboard so that is displays without a vertical scrollbar.

    Notes:

    (1) The three code pages being displayed on the dashboard are the following:

    https://haversineconsulting.quickbase.com/db/bncwhskym?a=dbpage&pagename=page1.html
    https://haversineconsulting.quickbase.com/db/bncwhskym?a=dbpage&pagename=page2.html
    https://haversineconsulting.quickbase.com/db/bncwhskym?a=dbpage&pagename=page3.html

    (2) QuickBase limits the vertical size of the <iframe> and containing <div> of the Web Page Widget to 400px. By placing this script at the bottom of the Web Page Widget you can dynamically adjust the height of the <iframe> and containing <div> to fit the actual height of the content.

    (3) The script uses the relatively obscure property window.frameElement from within the code page of the Web Page Widget to effectuate the height change.

    Virtually all of Dan Diebolt's technique use techniques which are now blocked by QuickBase as they would allow security loopholes.
