How to get iframe content?

Question

How to get content from an iframe with header content-type: text/plan?

Is it possible to load the content with $.ajax() without reloading the content?

iframe content:

{"result":{"posts":0,"posts_imported":0},"error":{"file":{"msg":"ERR_ERROR_FILE","trans":{"file":"csv"}}}}

Is the `iframe`'s content on the same domain as the page containing the `iframe`? — icktoofay, Oct 30 '11 at 23:48

In Jquery :

var content = $("iframe").contents();

How about:

your iframe html file:

a div

<div id='iframeContent'>
    {"result":{"posts":0,"posts_imported":0},"error":{"file":{"msg":"ERR_ERROR_FILE","trans":{"file":"csv"}}}}
</div>

then your code to replace it would be, I believe,

$('your-iframeid').childen('<div>',0).text(your-new-text);

I am a beginner; so, I might be completely off on this one (too).

Make sure to indent any code like HTML, javascript, etc. 4 spaces in - or use the Code toolbar button (looks like "{}"). – GregL Oct 31 '11 at 00:04
