Apex code on click of a abutton to render html in the same page layout

Hi,

  I am very new to Apex and Virtualforce development.  Here is what I need to do.. I need directions to how to go about it.

 

I have a custom button on Account page called  List Assests from XXX webpage.  When i click on it,  I need to load a a  400 X300 iframe with external URL like www.xxx.com/assests?id={!account.id} some where in the page layout with a list of assetts . I cannot leave the page or load it in a new window.  This should re render, every time I click the button.

 

Do my question is how do I associate a custom object, custom field to a VF page and how do i make it rerender from a button on the Account Page and make sure it all remains in the same page layout.

 

 

Thanks.

here is complete solution for you... :)

 

Create custom button , Detail page button with content source as Javascript

 

Here is code for your script

 

 

var url="http://www.xxx.com/assests?id={!Account.Id}";
var a = [];var re = new RegExp('\\bpbHeader\\b');var els = document.getElementsByTagName("div");for(var i=0,j=els.length; i<j; i++)if(re.test(els[i].className))a.push(els[i]);var parent=a[0];
var e=document.getElementById("FrameLoader");
if(e==null)
{
var Errordiv = document.createElement('div');
Errordiv.setAttribute('id','FrameLoader');
Errordiv.setAttribute('title','Download complete');
Errordiv.innerHTML = '<p><span class="ui-icon-circle-check ui-icon" style="float:left; margin:0 7px 50px 0;"></span>Assets Details  </p>';
parent.appendChild(Errordiv); 
var con=document.getElementById("FrameLoader");
var ifrm = document.createElement("IFRAME");
ifrm.setAttribute("src", url);
ifrm.setAttribute("frameBorder",0);
ifrm.style.width = 700+"px";
ifrm.style.height = 250+"px";
con.appendChild(ifrm); 
}
