detecting where my site is iframed

Question

I know that iframed pages can tell that they are, but is it possible to tell where? parent.location runs into security issues when parent is a different domain, as far as I can tell. Any work arounds?

Answer 1

I haven’t tested, but you should be able to do something like:

if (window.top !== window.self) {
    alert("I am a frame. The parent document is " + document.referrer);
}
