<html>
   <iframe src="iWantToBeTheParent.html" />
</html>

I think this is a JavaScript task, it would be nice to handle the redirection with htaccess though since my code will inside an iframe I’m looking for a method that initiates from inside the iframe source which would make the iframe url load as the parent.

I only have access to the iframe source page’s html.
Would it be possible to send a 301 HTTP redirect as well?

EDIT: I could use php to print out the url of the iframe page as a JavaScript variable if needed.

    You could try some javascript:

    <script type="text/javascript">
    <!--
        if (top.location!= self.location) {
            top.location = self.location.href
        }
    //-->
</script>

    Courtesy of:
    http://usablelayout.com/articles/automatically-break-out-iframe

    This will set the top level location (the main page) to the location of the page where the javascript is located (inside the iframe).
