Get HTML from an iframe

in Using jQuery • 13 years ago

Hello there,

I have an iframe loading external page. I want to get the HTML of this iframe onclick-button event. But since the page that is loaded in the iframe is an external page, I get the following error:

FIrefox: Permission denied for <file://> to get property HTMLDocument.getElementById from "External Page Link"

Chrome: Domains, protocols and ports must match.

It would be a great help if anyone could guide me how I can get the HTML from an iframe that loads an external page.

Thanks,
Moiz

Réf.: Get HTML from an iframe

Hello,

For security reason, all the browsers don't allow to make script calls between different domain pages.
There are several ways to make communication possible between iframe (using # in url for instance) but there is no simple solution.

Could you please give me an example where I can use # in url and do it?

Thanks,

using # in url wont allow you to get the html, all that will do is pass a value, such as the value of a variable. If you want the HTML of an external website, you will have to do that with php coldfusion or asp.
