I need to get notified whenever a user clicks a link on a page in an iframe that is not from the same domain. I'm aware of xss restrictions, however all i need to know is the current page being served in the Iframe. Is there a way to do this without violating xss rules?
To get the iframe location using jQuery:
alert( $('iframeId').contents().get(0).location.href );
If not for cross-site scripting restrictions this should work. Unfortunately I don't know of a way to get the URL without violating these restrictions.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function GetIFrameUrl()
{
alert('url = ' + document.frames['frame1'].location.href);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="#" onclick="GetIFrameUrl();">Find the iFrame URL</a>
<iframe name="frame1" src="http://www.google.com" width="100%" height="400"></iframe>
</body>
</html>
You can easily do it with vanilla js.
Get the source for attribute for that element
//Get by Id
var frame_src = document.getElementById('myIframe').src
//Get by tag name - get the first
var frame_src = document.getElementsByName('frmExternal')[0].src
//Alert
alert(frame_src)
<script type="text/javascript"> // if window open in iframe then redirect to main site
if(window.top.location != window.self.location)
{
alert(window.self.location);
// top.window.location.href = window.self.location;
}
</script>
