Well, I have run my little test of this iFrame transfer code
with every variation I can think of and it still doesn't work.
I'm trying to append the text, "This is inside frame.html...",
to the test of the p tag with id of 'iFrame-content'.
It seems so simple, but...
I always get 'content' as null in the alert I've set up, as well
as in console.log(content).
Can someone please point out the error?
Here's the code.
Thanks, Rick!

<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.2.6.min.js"></script>
<script>
function getContentFromIframe(iFrameName) {
var content = $('#myIFrame').html();
console.log(content);
alert(content);
$(#myiFrame-content).append(content);
</script>
</head>
<body>
<iframe id='iFrameName' name='iFrameName' src='frame.html'></iframe>
<a href="#" onclick="getContentFromIframe()">Get the content</a>
<p id="iFrame-content"></p>
</body>
</html>

frame.html

<html>
<head></head>
<body>
This is inside frame.html...
</body>
</html>

Oh, never noticed that funcionality, that's nice. The 'myIframe' var is
unnecessary though.
