Navigate from href in Iframe

[Jeronimo Bertran]

I have an <a href=url> inside an Iframe.... when I click it, the url is
navigated inside the frame... what do I need to do in order to navigate the
url on the browser window and NOT the iframe??

Thanks ,

Jeronimo

You could use Javascript to pass a reference to the outside window to the
inside, and use that reference to navigate the outer window's URL.

Sahil,

An example of how to retrieve the reference of the outside window and how
to use that reference to navigate would be GREAT...

Thanks...

Typically, I would just use the onclick of the hyperlink as seen below:

<a onclick="parent.document.location='some_url';" style="cursor:hand;"...

The only problem here is you have to specify the cursor style to display the
hand onmouseover.

no script required:

<a href=url target="_top">
