Calling a parent window function from an iframe

Question

I want to call a parent window JavaScript function from an iframe.

&         


        

Answer 1

I recently had to find out why this didn't work too.

The javascript you want to call from the child iframe needs to be in the head of the parent. If it is in the body, the script is not available in the global scope.

Hope this helps anyone that stumbles upon this issue again.
