Redirect parent window from an iframe action

Question

What JavaScript do I need to use to redirect a parent window from an iframe?

I want them to click a hyperlink which, using JavaScript or any other method, would redirect the parent window to a new URL.

Answer 1

window.top.location.href = "http://www.example.com"; 

Will redirect the top most parent Iframe.

window.parent.location.href = "http://www.example.com"; 

Will redirect the parent iframe.
