YouTube player API docs has a section on Accessing and modifying DOM nodes .
Which seems to say that using the method player.getIframe() returns an object with the DOM of the iframe having 'read/write' properties. Which is sort of unusual for an iframe, but google is controlling content and browser, so (I was hoping) that access could be granted while security is assured.
However, using the method player.getIframe() I personally get 4 attributes and NO childnodes(--Nodelist[]--) or children (--HTMLcollection[] -- ) and cannot seem to use js/jQ dom access methods like querySelector().
Disappointingly, this seems to be the experience reported elsewhere on SO .
Is there any way to access the DOM within the YT player API iframe, am I misreading the docs or do the docs need to be updated?!?
