Question

I hope someone can help with this issue. I have a popup iframe using lytebox. I would like it that when I click a link in my iframe with the class mylink that it executes the AJAX call and update a div in my main window with the id="mydiv".
I know how to do the onclick events and the ajax call but I do not know how to access the mydiv from the main window and update it with the content.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You can simply use window.parent.document to access the parent document from the iframe.

jQuery allows you to specify a context for searches, so you could then do:

$(myselector, window.parent.document);
