So I was. This is perfect, thanks!
I was able to take what you sent me and simplify it down to this:
var frameWindow = document.parentWindow || document.defaultView;
var outerDiv = $(frameWindow.frameElement.parentNode);
cls = $('div.tb_close', outerDiv).get(0);
Because I actually want to operate on a child of the outer div (which I
didn't specify as it wasn't relevant). And I figured out that I could use
document because when I am executing the javascript, I don't need the link,
merely the link's document, and document is what I need. Works in both FF
and IE as well.
Thanks a million for putting me on the right path! I worked for a couple of
hours on this before I asked; should have asked sooner! :)
