Basically I want to have an iFrame which always restricts it's content as if it comes from a different domain, even if the content comes from the same origin.
Is there any way to do this?

This will hide window.parent
in the child frame/window, but not the top
property.
BUT the window.parent
property is STILL accessible till the end of the onload event of the child window/frame.
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
#wrapper {width:1000px;height:600px;}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function() {
var frm = document.getElementById('childFrame');
var win = frm.contentWindow || (frm.contentDocument && frm.contentDocument.parentWindow) || (frm.document && frm.document.parentWindow);
if (win) win.parent = null;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<iframe id="childFrame" src="child.html" frameborder="0" style="width:100%;height:100%;"></iframe>
</div>
</body>
</html>
The best solution is probably to use the HTML5 sandbox attribute on the iframe, which (by default) explicitly disables both scripting and same-origin access to the parent DOM.

As of Dec 2012, this seems to be supported on most current browsers.
