Jquery – IE6 scroll event not working inside Iframe

I answered a similar question (see Javascript callback when IFRAME is finished loading?). You can obtain control over the iframe load event with the following code:

function callIframe(url, callback) {
    $(document.body).append('<IFRAME id="myId" ...>');
    $('iframe#myId').attr('src', url);

    $('iframe#myId').load(function() {
        callback(this);
    });
}

In dealing with iframes I found good enough to use load event instead of document ready event.

Browsers can block access to window.top due to same origin policy. IE bugs also take place. Here's the working code:

function inIframe () {
    try {
        return window.self !== window.top;
    } catch (e) {
        return true;
    }
}

top and self are both window objects (along with parent), so you're seeing if your window is the top window.
