I want to call a js function from iframe to a parent window

<script>

function abc()
{
    alert("sss");
}
</script>

<iframe id=myFrame>
        <a onclick="abc();" href=# >Call Me </a>
</iframe>
+4  A: 
<a onclick="parent.abc();" href="#" >Call Me </a>

See window.parent

Returns a reference to the parent of the current window or subframe.

If a window does not have a parent, its parent property is a reference to itself.

When a window is loaded in an <iframe>, <object>, or <frame>, its parent is the window with the element embedding the window.
