Is it possible (in confluence) to craft the url for iframe or dynamic to use?

john July 16, 2014

for example, I want to include the results from a internal search engine where the seach is for the page title. I see some references to the page title as a session varable but I have no idea how to get it appended to the end of the URL so that the page renders the results in a iframe

Hi John,

Here is a user macro that should do what you need (according to your example):

## @noparams
<ac:macro ac:name="iframe">
  <ac:parameter ac:name="title">Wikipedia Page</ac:parameter>
  <ac:parameter ac:name="height">500</ac:parameter>
  <ac:parameter ac:name="width">100%</ac:parameter>
  <ac:parameter ac:name="src">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/$content.getTitle()</ac:parameter>
  <ac:rich-text-body>
    <p> </p>
  </ac:rich-text-body>
</ac:macro>

You should just be able to mix and match as you need.

This did work and on the site I have to use, I have to get an admin to write it. so I sure wish it was more like parsing works in mediawiki. But this does the answer. Thanks,

First thanks for relpying on this. The content would be in a confluence page here is an example XML fragment :

<ac:macro ac:name="iframe">

<ac:parameter ac:name="title">Wikipedia Page</ac:parameter>

<ac:parameter ac:name="height">500</ac:parameter>

<ac:parameter ac:name="width">1000</ac:parameter>

<ac:parameter ac:name="src">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium</ac:parameter>

<ac:rich-text-body>

<p> </p>

</ac:rich-text-body>

</ac:macro>

but I want the page name to be used instead of Helium.

thanks again for thinking about this

Ok, so is this about inserting an iframe into a confluence page and pulling data from another system, or inserting confluence into an iframe in another app?
