access denied error in iframe

[benoypaul]

I have created iframe with following code

<iframe src="http://astore.amazon.com/" width="100%"  frameborder="0" name="amframe" id="amframe" height="1" scrolling="no" onLoad="resizeFrame1();" ></iframe>

I have used following javascript code to access scrolheight of iframe , in order to remove scroll bar based on the height

var h= document.getElementById("amframe").contentWindow.document.body.scrollHeight

I got "access denied" javascript error at the time of execution . I wish to know how to correct this error

Thanks in advance

hi ...

in case (and in your case it is) the loaded page in the frame is from another domain you cannot access it with javascript due to security issues ... because in case you could ... then you could 'Cross-Site-Script' and that would be a security hole ... you may have a look here

kind regards
