open iframe fancybox from within an iframe so that

Question

I can get this to work which opens a fancybox IMAGE from within an iframe

<a href="javascript:parent.$.fancybox.open({href : 'myurl'});">Open something</a>

Problem I have is that I need to open a fancybox IFRAME. Example code or any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Simply, set type iframe:

<a href="javascript:parent.$.fancybox.open({href : 'myurl', type: 'iframe'});">Open something in iframe</a>

But you should do it only when you need to have different options, because you can open other page withing iframe like:

<a href="myurl">Open something in iframe</a>
