How to write this in jquery "window.parent.document.getElementById('parentPrice').innerHTML"?

Question

I have an iframe and I wrote this code

window.parent.document.getElementById('parentPrice').innerHTML

to access parent element. How to get the same result using jquery?
UPDATE: Or how to access iFrame parent page using jquery?

Answer 1

To find in the parent of the iFrame use:

$('#parentPrice', window.parent.document).html();

The second parameter for the $() wrapper is the context in which to search. This defaults to document.

Answer 2

how to access iFrame parent page using jquery

window.parent.document.

jQuery is a library on top of JavaScript, not a complete replacement for it. You don't have to replace every last JavaScript expression with something involving $.

Answer 3

Good stuff

If have an iframe inside my HTML document. I would like to access with jQuery the parent document of the iframe. The following Code works fine in Firefox. But Safari just stays inside the iframe and doesn`t parse the parent element??? (latest Safari version 4.0.4) Thanks for your help.

var attr = $("html",window.top.document).html();

function ifDoneChildFrame(val)
{
   $('#parentPrice').html(val);
}
