jquery - Load event for iFrame not fired in IE

Question

Why is the load event not fired in IE for iFrames?

Please take a look at this example.

Work perfectly as expected in FF and Chrome, but IE fails.

Answer 1

I think for iframes in Internet Explorer you can't set that event handler (onload) programmatically, you need to specify it in your markup.

Something like:

<iframe id="myFrame" onload="myFunction();"></iframe>

Otherwise IE is just going to ignore the function.
