Is there a way to access browsing context in JavaScript?
Update: I'm reading HTML5 specification and there, it says that for each new tab, or new window, or iframe there is a notion of browsing context which is created by browser and each new document that you surf (each new link) would be stored and presented to users in this browsing context.
I just wonder if we have access to it. For example, a browsing context has a history and we can access that using window.history.

A browsing context is an environment in which Document objects are presented to the user. A tab or window in a Web browser typically contains a browsing context, as does an iframe or frame s in a frameset . Each browsing context has a corresponding WindowProxy object.
A browsing context that has no parent browsing context is the top-level browsing context for itself and all of the browsing contexts for which it is an ancestor browsing context. A top-level browsing context has an associated group (null or a browsing context group). It is initially null.
1 Nested browsing contexts. Certain elements (for example, iframe elements) can instantiate further browsing contexts. These are called nested browsing contexts .
The contextmenu attribute specifies a context menu for an element. The context menu appears when a user right-clicks on the element. The value of the contextmenu attribute is the id of the <menu> element to open.
Yes with the window object
see what w3 says about it
You can use window.top to access the top most context for instance.
