How to force link from iframe to be opened in the parent window?

Question

I need to open the link in the same parent page, instead of open it in a new page.note : The `iframe` and parent page are **the same domain**.

If a link is inside of an iframe, it will open within the iframe by default.

To force a single link from iframe to open in the parent window: add target="_PARENT" within that links anchor tag.

<a href="https://www.google.com" target="_PARENT">Google.com</a>

To force ALL links from iframe to open in the parent window: add the base tag with target="_PARENT" in the head section of the iframe html page.
