How to use child pages in js parent page

Iframe is a very commonly used html element. How should I write the method of using child pages in the parent page? Let’s give a brief introduction below.
1. Parent page code

<html>
<head>
<meta charset=" gb2312">
<title>Parent page</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function parentFunction() 
{
 alert('function in parent');
}
function callChild() 
{
 ();
 /*
   child is the name attribute value of the iframe,
   Cannot be id, because id cannot get iframe object under FireFox
  */
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
 <iframe name="child" src="./" ></iframe>
</body>
</html>

2. Code in iframe

<html>
<head>
<meta charset="gb2312">
<title>iframeCode</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function childFunction() 
{
 alert('function in child');
}
function callParent() 
{
 ();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

The above two codes can call each other's functions on the parent page and the child page. It is relatively simple and will not be introduced more.
I hope that the description in this article will be helpful to everyone to learn JavaScript programming.
