I didn't see you posted azn example page. When testing it, I found that
both Opera and Chromium returned the correct thing but they format it
differently. Opera alerts "Comic Sans MS [microsoft]". I actually like
how Opera alerts the font you're actually using instead of the whole
font stack, this is way more useful information in most cases.
I didn't test in IE, but I guess this is a bug in Firefox.

I'm trying to retrieve the current font from an element that is within an

From within the document itself I can retrieve the font just fine
using the
following:
$(document).ready(function(){
var getFontFamily = $("#get_font_of_this").css("font-family");
alert(getFontFamily);
});
-- returns (Comic Sans MS, cursive)
But once I try retrieving the same element's font from a parent
document as
shown below, I do not get the expected response:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#iframe").load(function(){
var getFontFamily =
$("#iframe").contents().find("#get_font_of_this").css("font-family");
alert(getFontFamily);
});
});
-- returns (serif)
I can seemingly retrieve any other css property through this method,
but for
some reason the font returns as a default (serif), or sometimes
(Arial, ...,
serif)
If anyone can shed some light on this issue, I will be indebted to you.
Thanks in advance!
