Why is the following not working:

//iframe:

window.parent.$(document).trigger('complete');



//parent window:

$(document).bind('complete', function(){

  alert('Complete');

});

while the following IS working:

//iframe:

window.parent.$('body').trigger('complete');



//parent window:

$('body').bind('complete', function(){

  alert('Complete');

});

?

The way events are tracked, you can only trigger or receive events on the same document.

try

window.parent.$(window.parent.document).trigger('complete');
