I hope this should solve your problem:

JavaScript / DHTML / AJAX Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
<script language="JavaScript">
function changeCSS(){
frame = window.document.frames[0];
frame.document.getElementById("myDiv").style.background="red";//OR ..style.display="none";
}
</script>
<a href="javascript:changeCSS()">Click Here here to Change Iframe CSS</a>
<br>
<iframe src="frame.htm" name="myFrame" id="myFrame"></iframe>
<script language="JavaScript">
function changeCSS(){
frame = window.document.frames[0];
frame.document.getElementById("myDiv").style.background="red";//OR ..style.display="none";
}
</script>
<a href="javascript<b></b>:changeCSS()">Click Here here to Change Iframe CSS</a>
<br>
<iframe src="frame.htm" name="myFrame" id="myFrame"></iframe>

frame.htm should have a div tag with the ID as "myDiv".

Regards.
