Add a click event to iframe in jquery

Question

My DOM has iframe with id="" and name ="".

The iframe has a form inside, inside the form is a table and I need to fire a click event on the table data. The table data(td) has a link. When the link is clicked a function needs to fire off.

How do I get this working using jQuery?

Can you post the html you're using? Also blank id and name attributes don't seem correct -- or at least not good practice. — Kevin Bedell

Possibly something like this:

$("#iframeID").contents().find("td.data").children("a").on("click", function() {
    // do something
    return false;
});
