I have two HTML Pages ,one of which contains Iframe and the other where the contents of iframe are placed.Now my query is to close the div in which the iframe is contained on button click of button which is contained in the source of iframe.

My Main Page(Parent Page) which contains the iframe-

</div>

you can access the parent window object from within the child iframe and call jquery from there.

replace

$(".my").slideUp();

with

parent.$(".my").slideUp();

This will only work if you access your page through a webserver ie:

localhost/yourpage.html

in the child iFrame within the button click handler – actual_kangaroo Dec 03 '13 at 04:50
i am able to close the div in which all the controls are specified but still there exists a div which does not hide. – Rohit Singh Dec 03 '13 at 05:01
parent.$(".my").slideUp() should hide the div containing the iFrame, is that happening? – actual_kangaroo Dec 03 '13 at 05:05
No Eru thats not happening.Instead the div that was closing is also not closing. – Rohit Singh Dec 03 '13 at 05:08
hmm, could you tell me what window.parent.getElementById('contantdiv') returns? when called in place of parent.$(".my").slideUp(); – actual_kangaroo Dec 03 '13 at 05:43
window.parent.getElementById('contantdiv') does not returns anything. – Rohit Singh Dec 03 '13 at 05:54
sorry, should have been this: window.parent.document.getElementById('contantdiv') – actual_kangaroo Dec 03 '13 at 06:10
your code works fine in Internet Explorer but not in google chrome.Any Explanations? – Rohit Singh Dec 03 '13 at 06:43
hmm in chrome, you cannot access the parent frame if you access your page like this file:///C:/users..../test.html Are you accessing your page like that or through http://localhost/page.test ? – actual_kangaroo Dec 03 '13 at 07:03
