### Constants

### OpenLayers.Tile.Image.IFrame

Mixin for tiles that use form-encoded POST requests to get images from remote services. Images will be loaded using HTTP-POST into an IFrame.

This mixin will be applied to OpenLayers.Tile.Image instances configured with OpenLayers.Tile.Image.maxGetUrlLength set.

### Properties

### useIFrame

{Boolean} true if we are currently using an IFrame to render POST responses, false if we are using an img element to render GET responses.

### Functions

### draw

> draw: function()

Set useIFrame in the instance, and operate the image/iframe switch. Then call Tile.Image.draw.

#### Returns

{Boolean}

### getImage

> getImage: function()

Creates the content for the frame on the tile.

### createRequestForm

> createRequestForm: function()

Create the html <form> element with width, height, bbox and all parameters specified in the layer params.

#### Returns

{DOMElement} The form element which sends the HTTP-POST request to the WMS.

### setImgSrc

> setImgSrc: function( | url | )

Sets the source for the tile image

#### Parameters

url | {String}

### onImageLoad

> onImageLoad: function()

Handler for the image onload event

### createBackBuffer

> createBackBuffer: function()

Override createBackBuffer to do nothing when we use an iframe. Moving an iframe from one element to another makes it necessary to reload the iframe because its content is lost. So we just give up.

#### Returns

{DOMElement}

> draw: function()

Set useIFrame in the instance, and operate the image/iframe switch.

> getImage: function()

Creates the content for the frame on the tile.

> createRequestForm: function()

Create the html form element with width, height, bbox and all parameters specified in the layer params.
