Description Juan Carlos Estibariz 2005-03-13 21:20:10 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:                Linux

Although it's not a standard, both Mozilla(Gecko) and IE support this property which returns the frame or iframe object that is hosting the window in the parent document.

The documentation for IE can be found here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/properties.asp

This property mirrors the property "contentWindow" in frame/iframe requested in the bug 99318.

Any uses in actual webpages?
Comment 2 Juan Carlos Estibariz 2005-03-17 03:42:29 UTC 
We use it in a product that our company (Quest Software) is developing, it is very helpful when the scripts should work with multiple frames.
Comment 3 Yan Morin 2005-03-27 00:14:43 UTC 
Google use it in Google Suggest

CVS commit by carewolf: 

Implement frame.contentWindow and window.frameElement.

FEATURE: 99318, 101442

Notes:
   Fixes Google Suggest again. 
   It seems the new GMail also uses them, but this alone appears to fix nothing.
