document?

Of course it doesn't work.
You are searching for node elements with id=login that are child of
your iframes. You need to use the dom of the page loaded inside the i
frame
try $(frames['Theiframe']).get(0).contentDocument
I in the content page is present jquery, use
$(frames['Theiframe']).get(0).contentWindow.$('#login')
BTW, you can access child dom only if in same domain
