Reference parent window document

Solution 1
You want window.opener
not window.parent
(that's for frames).
Solution 2
You can use context to accessed it:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var content = $("#summary",window.opener.document).html();
});
</script>

I'm trying to access the parent window document from a popup.
<script type='text/javascript'> $(document).ready(function(){ var summary = window.parent.document.getElementById('summary'); var content = summary.innerHTML; }); </script>
Is it even possible? Is there a jQuery specific way to do it?
Thanks
