Working with url and strings in javascript

I'm working with cordova 3.5

I've an iframe setup as following:

  <iframe src="http://localhost/test/index.html" style="width:100%;height:90%" onLoad="checkforclose(this);"></iframe>

And the JS is the following:

<script type="text/javascript">
function checkforclose(pageURL) { 
    var urlFrame = pageURL.contentWindow.location; //WORKS
    alert(urlFrame); //WORKS
    alert(urlFrame.indexOf('test')); //DOESN'T WORK EVEN FOR ANY VALUE - RETURNS UNDEFINED
}   
</script>

The snippet works, because the first two lines works. But the third don't. Even more, in JSFiddler works. I'm very lost with this.

Thanks in advance

Try this...

var urlFrame = pageURL.src

You are getting undefined because value of "urlFrame" is empty.

Try alert(urlFrame.href.indexOf('test'));

The reason it doesn't work is you are calling indexOf on a window.location (urlFrame) Object. It is throwing an error because indexOf() is not a function property of window.location.
