Hello, can anyone help me figure out how to open a popup from an iframe in the parent window instead of the iframe?

Hello lisasal, and welcome to the forums.
I'm not clear what you are aiming for here. A conventional pop-up is already its own independent window, rather than part of the iframe or its parent. Can you give us a little more detail (a bit of code might help, too.)

Depending on exactly what you are trying to achieve, you may run into security problems. However...
By "popup" I assume you mean a <div> styled as a window, in this case you could try placing the javascript required to open it in the parent. You may then be able to call it from the <iframe>. I have never tried this.
The javascript forum may be a better place to ask this question.
