# webFrame
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
> Customize the rendering of the current web page.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Process: [Renderer](../glossary.md#renderer-process)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`webFrame` export of the Electron module is an instance of the `WebFrame`
 | 
						|
class representing the top frame of the current `BrowserWindow`. Sub-frames can
 | 
						|
be retrieved by certain properties and methods (e.g. `webFrame.firstChild`).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
An example of zooming current page to 200%.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```javascript
 | 
						|
const { webFrame } = require('electron')
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
webFrame.setZoomFactor(2)
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Methods
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `WebFrame` class has the following instance methods:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.setZoomFactor(factor)`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `factor` Number - Zoom factor.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Changes the zoom factor to the specified factor. Zoom factor is
 | 
						|
zoom percent divided by 100, so 300% = 3.0.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.getZoomFactor()`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns `Number` - The current zoom factor.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.setZoomLevel(level)`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `level` Number - Zoom level.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Changes the zoom level to the specified level. The original size is 0 and each
 | 
						|
increment above or below represents zooming 20% larger or smaller to default
 | 
						|
limits of 300% and 50% of original size, respectively.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.getZoomLevel()`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns `Number` - The current zoom level.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.setVisualZoomLevelLimits(minimumLevel, maximumLevel)`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `minimumLevel` Number
 | 
						|
* `maximumLevel` Number
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sets the maximum and minimum pinch-to-zoom level.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
> **NOTE**: Visual zoom is disabled by default in Electron. To re-enable it, call:
 | 
						|
>
 | 
						|
> ```js
 | 
						|
> webFrame.setVisualZoomLevelLimits(1, 3)
 | 
						|
> ```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.setLayoutZoomLevelLimits(minimumLevel, maximumLevel)`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `minimumLevel` Number
 | 
						|
* `maximumLevel` Number
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sets the maximum and minimum layout-based (i.e. non-visual) zoom level.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.setSpellCheckProvider(language, provider)`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `language` String
 | 
						|
* `provider` Object
 | 
						|
  * `spellCheck` Function
 | 
						|
    * `words` String[]
 | 
						|
    * `callback` Function
 | 
						|
      * `misspeltWords` String[]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sets a provider for spell checking in input fields and text areas.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `provider` must be an object that has a `spellCheck` method that accepts
 | 
						|
an array of individual words for spellchecking.
 | 
						|
The `spellCheck` function runs asynchronously and calls the `callback` function
 | 
						|
with an array of misspelt words when complete.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
An example of using [node-spellchecker][spellchecker] as provider:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```javascript
 | 
						|
const { webFrame } = require('electron')
 | 
						|
const spellChecker = require('spellchecker')
 | 
						|
webFrame.setSpellCheckProvider('en-US', {
 | 
						|
  spellCheck (words, callback) {
 | 
						|
    setTimeout(() => {
 | 
						|
      const spellchecker = require('spellchecker')
 | 
						|
      const misspelled = words.filter(x => spellchecker.isMisspelled(x))
 | 
						|
      callback(misspelled)
 | 
						|
    }, 0)
 | 
						|
  }
 | 
						|
})
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.insertCSS(css)`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `css` String - CSS source code.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns `String` - A key for the inserted CSS that can later be used to remove
 | 
						|
the CSS via `webFrame.removeInsertedCSS(key)`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Injects CSS into the current web page and returns a unique key for the inserted
 | 
						|
stylesheet.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.removeInsertedCSS(key)`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `key` String
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Removes the inserted CSS from the current web page. The stylesheet is identified
 | 
						|
by its key, which is returned from `webFrame.insertCSS(css)`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.insertText(text)`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `text` String
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Inserts `text` to the focused element.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.executeJavaScript(code[, userGesture])`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `code` String
 | 
						|
* `userGesture` Boolean (optional) - Default is `false`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns `Promise<any>` - A promise that resolves with the result of the executed code
 | 
						|
or is rejected if the result of the code is a rejected promise.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Evaluates `code` in page.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
In the browser window some HTML APIs like `requestFullScreen` can only be
 | 
						|
invoked by a gesture from the user. Setting `userGesture` to `true` will remove
 | 
						|
this limitation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.executeJavaScriptInIsolatedWorld(worldId, scripts[, userGesture])`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `worldId` Integer - The ID of the world to run the javascript in, `0` is the default world, `999` is the world used by Electrons `contextIsolation` feature.  You can provide any integer here.
 | 
						|
* `scripts` [WebSource[]](structures/web-source.md)
 | 
						|
* `userGesture` Boolean (optional) - Default is `false`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns `Promise<any>` - A promise that resolves with the result of the executed code
 | 
						|
or is rejected if the result of the code is a rejected promise.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Works like `executeJavaScript` but evaluates `scripts` in an isolated context.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.setIsolatedWorldInfo(worldId, info)`
 | 
						|
* `worldId` Integer - The ID of the world to run the javascript in, `0` is the default world, `999` is the world used by Electrons `contextIsolation` feature. Chrome extensions reserve the range of IDs in `[1 << 20, 1 << 29)`. You can provide any integer here.
 | 
						|
* `info` Object
 | 
						|
  * `securityOrigin` String (optional) - Security origin for the isolated world.
 | 
						|
  * `csp` String (optional) - Content Security Policy for the isolated world.
 | 
						|
  * `name` String (optional) - Name for isolated world. Useful in devtools.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Set the security origin, content security policy and name of the isolated world.
 | 
						|
Note: If the `csp` is specified, then the `securityOrigin` also has to be specified.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.getResourceUsage()`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns `Object`:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `images` [MemoryUsageDetails](structures/memory-usage-details.md)
 | 
						|
* `scripts` [MemoryUsageDetails](structures/memory-usage-details.md)
 | 
						|
* `cssStyleSheets` [MemoryUsageDetails](structures/memory-usage-details.md)
 | 
						|
* `xslStyleSheets` [MemoryUsageDetails](structures/memory-usage-details.md)
 | 
						|
* `fonts` [MemoryUsageDetails](structures/memory-usage-details.md)
 | 
						|
* `other` [MemoryUsageDetails](structures/memory-usage-details.md)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns an object describing usage information of Blink's internal memory
 | 
						|
caches.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```javascript
 | 
						|
const { webFrame } = require('electron')
 | 
						|
console.log(webFrame.getResourceUsage())
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This will generate:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```javascript
 | 
						|
{
 | 
						|
  images: {
 | 
						|
    count: 22,
 | 
						|
    size: 2549,
 | 
						|
    liveSize: 2542
 | 
						|
  },
 | 
						|
  cssStyleSheets: { /* same with "images" */ },
 | 
						|
  xslStyleSheets: { /* same with "images" */ },
 | 
						|
  fonts: { /* same with "images" */ },
 | 
						|
  other: { /* same with "images" */ }
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.clearCache()`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Attempts to free memory that is no longer being used (like images from a
 | 
						|
previous navigation).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note that blindly calling this method probably makes Electron slower since it
 | 
						|
will have to refill these emptied caches, you should only call it if an event
 | 
						|
in your app has occurred that makes you think your page is actually using less
 | 
						|
memory (i.e. you have navigated from a super heavy page to a mostly empty one,
 | 
						|
and intend to stay there).

 | 
						|
### `webFrame.getFrameForSelector(selector)`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `selector` String - CSS selector for a frame element.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns `WebFrame` - The frame element in `webFrame's` document selected by
 | 
						|
`selector`, `null` would be returned if `selector` does not select a frame or
 | 
						|
if the frame is not in the current renderer process.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.findFrameByName(name)`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `name` String
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns `WebFrame` - A child of `webFrame` with the supplied `name`, `null`
 | 
						|
would be returned if there's no such frame or if the frame is not in the current
 | 
						|
renderer process.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `webFrame.findFrameByRoutingId(routingId)`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `routingId` Integer - An `Integer` representing the unique frame id in the
 | 
						|
   current renderer process. Routing IDs can be retrieved from `WebFrame`
 | 
						|
   instances (`webFrame.routingId`) and are also passed by frame
 | 
						|
   specific `WebContents` navigation events (e.g. `did-frame-navigate`)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns `WebFrame` - that has the supplied `routingId`, `null` if not found.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
