I need to grab content from an iFrame, preferably using jQuery.
However, I have no clue how to do this.
First off, I'm inserting the iFrame into the page:
<script>
$(function() {
$("#divID").after("<iframe src='http://example.com/test/test.html'
name='tesaaat' id='tesaaat' height='0' width='0'></iframe>");
});
</script>
Now then, test.html looks something like this:
<html>
<head><title>Test</title></head>
<body>
<div id="example">Text</div>
</body>
</html>
I need to pull out the text in #example. I tried this
<script>
$(function() {
$("#divID").after("<iframe src='http://example.com/test/test.html'
name='tesaaat' id='tesaaat' height='0' width='0'></iframe>");
var something = $("parent.frames['tesaaat'].document >
#example").text();
});
</script>
But for some reason this doesn't work. When I try alert(something) it
alerts a box with nothing, and oddly enough it does it twice.
I searched around a bit but didn't find anything that could help me,
and this should be simple I think.
Anyone got any clues? Thanks.
