As the jQuery instance is from the parent window, you have to specify
that you want an element from the iframe:
$ = window.parent.$;
$(function() {
$("#test", frames['thisframe']).click(function() { // element in
iframe
$("#hold").append('<a href="#">Inserted from iFrame</a> <br />'); //
element in parent frame
});
});
