You could simply fix the problem by moving the script inside frame.html — Yann, Jul 24 '13 at 15:51
have you tried using the [sandbox](http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_iframe_sandbox.asp) attribute? — Hristo Valkanov, Jul 24 '13 at 15:52

IFrame on same domain

I think this is what you are describing...

If your iframe is from the same domain as your code, you can use:

$("iframe").contents().find('.check') as your selector.

IFrame from a different domain

Not possible, please see this question: jQuery/JavaScript: accessing contents of an iframe
