Hello all,

When we use Custom error pages in our website, and when we load our pages inside iframes, if an error occurs the custom error page loads inside that iframe. Sometimes it breakups the site uniformity and there are times we need to display the custom error page as it is (Not load it inside the iframe). There is an easy way to do this. By having the following javascript/jQuery code within the custom error page head section, it will check whether it's loading inside an iframe. If it's loading inside an iframe, then the custom error page will set as the top page.

    <script>

        $(function () {

            if (window != window.top) { //Checks whether the custom error page is loading inside an iframe

                window.top.location = window.location; //Set the top location to custom error page location

            }

        });

    </script>

The ASP.NET Wiki was started by Scott Hanselman in February of 2008. The idea is that folks spend a lot of time trolling the blogs, googlinglive-searching for answers to common "How To" questions. There's piles of fantastic community-created and MSFT-created content out there, but if it's not found by a search engine and the right combination of keywords, it's often lost.

The ASP.NET Wiki articles moved to CodeProject in October 2013 and will live on, loved, protected and updated by the community.
