[Javascript] Iframe's Real innerHTML

[Flavio Gomes]

Ok, I found a solution,

 Instead of reading from the iframe I decided to write to the parent 
with "window.parent.document". It worked fine for both browsers.

Ps.: in Mozilla there's a way to access the iframe's document from the 
parent: it's "iframeObject.contentDocument" altought I couldn't find a 
substitute for IE.
