Click-event on iframe?

Question

I have a simple iFrame … 

Answer 1

jQuery has a method, called .contents(), that when used on an iframe element returns the document of the iframe.

// Get a reference to the iframe document
var iframeDoc = $('#inviteFrame').contents().get(0);

Now you can bind an event to it, get the dimensions, get styles of various elements, etc:

// Get width of iframe document
$(iframeDoc).width();

// Get height of iframe document
$(iframeDoc).height();

// Bind event to iframe document
$(iframeDoc).bind('click', function( event ) {
    // do something
});

// Get the style of an element in the iframe
$('div', iframeDoc).css('backgroundColor');
