Is it possible to submit a form inside an iframe without affecting the browser's history?
I've implemented sending a cross domain POST request. It uses Javascript to create and submit a form inside an iframe. It works, but each request adds an item to the browser's history.
Anyone know a way around this? I've tried creating the iframe with both innerHTML and createElement. I've seen no difference so far.
PS - I would love to use XMLHtttpRequest ("Ajax"), but it doesn't support sending data across domains. And I would love to use GET instead of post, but I need to send more than 2k of data.
Here's one version of my code. I've tried many variations and have searched all over, butI can't seem to find a solution that doesn't affect the browser's history. I believe it's not possible -- can anyone confirm that?
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function submit(params) {
var div = document.createElement('div');
div.innerHTML = '<iframe height="50" width="50"></iframe>';
document.body.appendChild(div);
var iframe = div.firstChild;
var iframeDocument = iframe.contentDocument || iframe.contentWindow.document;
iframeDocument.open();
iframeDocument.close();
var form = iframeDocument.createElement('form');
iframeDocument.body.appendChild(form);
form.setAttribute('action', 'http://some-other-domain.com/submit-here');
form.setAttribute('method', 'POST');
for (param in params) {
var field = iframeDocument.createElement('input');
field.setAttribute('type', 'hidden');
field.setAttribute('name', param);
field.setAttribute('value', params[param]);
form.appendChild(field);
}
form.submit();
}
window.onload = function() {
document.getElementById('button').onclick = function() {
submit({
'x' : 'Some Value',
'y' : 'Another Value',
'z' : new Date().getTime()
});
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
