How can I work with jQuery and iframe. Get and pass var from iframe to body and from body to iframe. I have the following example. How can I click the button in iframe and make it take effect on the the body #test. How about ready var x in iframe.
<body>
var x = "whatever";
<div id"test"></div>
<iframe width="200px" height="200px" src="page.html"></iframe>
</body>
Inside page.html i have
<button>clickme</button>
<script>
var elm = $('<span>content</span>');
elm.appendTo('#test')
</script>

$("#myid", top.document);
or
$("#myid", parent.document.body);
This will give you access to the container of the IFRAME

From the parents perspective:
var iFrameValue = $('#iframe').get(0).contentWindow.myLocalFunction();
OR
var iFrameValue = $('#iframe').get(0).contentWindow.myLocalVariable;
From the iframe perspective
<script type="text/javascript">
var myLocalVariable = "hello";
function myLocalFunction () {
return "hello";
}
</script>
You can use contentWindow and contentDocument properties, if same origin poilicy is not a problem. I've setup a demo. View code for the demo and code for iframe.
