using iframes in Safari

I am trying to access image information that is displayed using
iframe.
iframe code looks like this:
<iframe id="testImage" src="/images/someimg.gif" scrolling="yes"
frameborder="0" style="border: 0; width: 280px; height: 455px;"></
iframe>

I need to figure out height of the image.

In Firefox and IE it is not a problem.

document.getEle mentById('testI mage').contentW indow.document. getElementsByTa gName('img')
[0].height
document.getEle mentById('testI mage').contentW indow.contentDo cument.height

But in Safari contentWindow is undefined.

contentWindow is an MS proprietary property of frame and iframe
elements, it may not be supported by browsers other than IE so make
sure you test for it before attempting to use it.

Sure would be nice if the older pages at Mozilla could get a little update. I remember it
losing out in Mozilla, but cannot find where I read it.

The original poster can use document.defaul tView instead of contentWindow.

Oops, scratch that. I know diddly about Safari, so no clue if what I suggested is an
alternative or not.

<form onsubmit="retur n false;">
<p>Works with : FF 2, Opera 9, iCab 3.0.3 :
<button onclick="
if(parent.testI mage.document.i mages)
alert(parent.te stImage.documen t.images.length >0);
">is there an image ? </button>
</p>

Hello! This is not question, I was just wondering, why people continue using frames and iframes when we have handy AJAX approach to fill needed divs with content. Is it because of some user's paranoia about javascript? But if they make pages without javascript, they would not need to bother, how to access other frame's content, would they? :) kaaposc

I'm unclear as to how best to use what I'm terming the top-level CSS selectors, by which I mean selectors like *, html and body. I'm coming at this from trying to understand how best to set font sizes but I seem to have strayed into a broader question. Some CSS guides seem to suggest that a * declaration is good practice for any style sheet, primarily I suppose to set zero defaults for margin and padding for all other relevant selectors...
