Fancybox 2 Dynamic Width Based on Content Size
Solution 1
Looking at your intro-file.cfm
file makes things clearer.
If your code inside the file is working fine, I think that you could get the dimensions from the preview_wrapper
container.
Just two questions:
- if you are using
$
... in$('.loading-video').slideUp()
for instance, shouldn't you be including thejquery.js
file inside yourintro-file.cfm
file? - is this double
##
before the selector in$('##preview_wrapper').width()
correct?
Assuming that everything is working fine, then try including in your fancybox script:
scrolling: "no", // optional to avoid scrollbars inside fancybox
beforeShow: function(){
this.width = $('.fancybox-iframe').contents().find('#preview_wrapper').width();
this.height = $('.fancybox-iframe').contents().find('#preview_wrapper').height();
}
... to get the dimensions from the player's wrapper.
Solution 2
Iframe width is currently not calculated. Maybe you could set width/height for each iframe like this - http://jsfiddle.net/vVKMF/

I've got an IFrame being opened via Fancybox 2 that plays a video:
HTML:
<a class="fancybox-video" href="/user/intro-file.cfm" rel="file_name" title="View Video">File Name</a>
Javascript:
$("a.fancybox-video").fancybox({ scrolling : 'no', type : 'iframe', helpers : { title: null } });
The video is user-uploaded, so I don't know the size. I will be setting a maxHeight and maxWidth on the Fancybox eventually, but I've removed them for easier troubleshooting.
How can I set the width of the Fancybox based on the content? With my test file, which is around 400px wide, the fancybox itself is being set to 830/800px wide (the outer and inner widths): screencap of too-wide fancybox http://img528.imageshack.us/img528/3872/fancyboxwidth.png
autoSize and fitToView have no effect. There's no CSS or code on the IFrame page that is setting a default width. If I force a width in the Fancybox code it works, but since my content is dynamic, it won't work for the live system.
I also tried adapting a function from another question asking about height resizing, but it didn't work either:
beforeShow : function() { $('.fancybox-iframe').load(function() { $('.fancybox-inner').width($(this).contents().find('body').width()); }); }
Edit: Added the code of the IFrame page I'm trying to load into the Fancybox:
