I'm writing a chrome extension, and I want it to access the elements within an iFrame whose source is in another domain. I tried doing it within my Content Script in which I'm doing all the other stuff, but it got blocked because of the different domain. Is there any way I can bypass it, maybe running the script from the main extension and not from a content script? Thanks in advance!

Thanks a lot! Took me some time to try it out, but it seems to work! – Nekoshet Apr 02 '16 at 13:42

You cannot do that because of XSS protection. You can if you can get permission from the website you are loading into your iframe. If you cannot then I am sorry you have to come up with a different approach.
