i'm making an iOS app for showing schedule for my college. I'm kinda new in javascript, i thought it's simple until now. I know this task may be simple and trivial, but listen: My application generates link with parameters and then creates a dynamic page with an iframe and opens link within it (src of an iframe sets to generated link), link leads to a page on a different domain, it has a HTML table with needed data in it's cells, each cell has it's own attribute, so i thought i could simply find each needed cell by it using DOM, but accessing iframe's DOM doesn't work. I can change absolutely nothing on server side - even college technicians do not know how it works and of course they'll not touch anything until it breakes. So the question is: how can i get the text from the cells of that table by knowing their attributes and store it as a variable in javascript?

Almost forgot, example of a page itself: http://ikis.tsogu.ru/shedule/show_shedule.php?action=group&union=0&sid=96&gr=111&year=2015&vr=0

  • i can't use PHP b/c it'll be an iphone app... w8 i think i can host a server running PHP, and then send this link to it and, then server will do it's work with the page and send the data back, right? Where can i read more about this? – Roman Kurbanov May 19 '15 at 10:22
  • "but accessing iframe's DOM doesn't work" — No, it doesn't. Deal with this outside of the browser. – Quentin May 19 '15 at 10:23
