Stopping a iframe from loading a page using javascript
For FireFox/Safari/Chrome you can use window.stop():
window.frames[0].stop()
For IE, you can do the same thing with document.execCommand('Stop'):
window.frames[0].document.execCommand('Stop')
For a cross-browser solution you could use:
if (navigator.appName == 'Microsoft Internet Explorer') { window.frames[0].document.execCommand('Stop');} else { window.frames[0].stop();}
The whole code should be like this, (unclenorton's line was missing a bracket)
if (typeof (window.frames[0].stop) === 'undefined'){ //Internet Explorer code setTimeout(function() {window.frames[0].document.execCommand('Stop');},1000);}else{ //Other browsers setTimeout(function() {window.frames[0].stop();},1000);}
