Try this but make sure Iframe and your origin page in same domain as iframe does not support cross domain

JavaScript

window.parent.document.getElementById('parentElement')[0].innerHTML;;

Jquery

 $('#parentElement', window.parent.document);

To get the content of the element in the parent window from inside the iFrame :

window.parent.document.getElementsByClassName('Entete_UserName')[0].innerHTML;

this is for outside the iframe trying to see whats inside..

document.getElementById("myiframe").contentWindow.document.getElementById()

but you have to be on the same domain
