Accessing the JSON Object Within an IFrame

By Ron S. March 22, 2013 March 22, 2013 0

For some reason in IE8, I couldn’t access the built-in JSON global object in Javascript within an iframe. I’m not sure if this issue exists in other browsers, but the fix is to specify the top property first, and then the JSON object: top.JSON.stringify(({json: ‘object’})) See jquery.com
