Accessing IFrame anchors

[dorinbogdan]

Let's say that my IFrame has id="container".
I can get a reference to it using

var ref = document.getElementById("container");

I can get an array of all elements using:

ref.document.all

But, how can I get just anchor elements of ref, without looping through all elements? is there a getElementsByTagName() method or other way?

Thanks,
Dorin.

var ref = document.getElementById("container");

var refdoc=ref.contentWindow.document;

refdoc returns the document in the window contained by the Iframe.
As long as it is in the same domain as the parent page, you can use all of the documen methods you would have access to if you opened the document directly.

to get the links-
var linklist=refdoc.getElementsByTagName('a')
or
var linklist=refdoc.links

Thanks for help, I just found it too.

God bless you,
