How to get the text inside a div inside an iframe in js [duplicate]

Question

I am Adel and I am creating a gaming app that works with PHP, js, and HTML, now what I want is a way to get a text from div with the id 'value1' inside an iframe with the id 'ServerData' in js.

This file is stored locally in my program that runs php, js, and html files:

<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<iframe src="http://website.com/file.php">
<div id="value1">
AnText
</div>
</iframe>
<script>
  the script 
</script>
</body>
</html>

Is the iframe in the same domain as you page? Browser will not allow you to do anything with the iframe if it is from the different domain — Damian Dziaduch

it's from a different domain, because the file that needs to get the data is stored locally — Minecraft - Adel Store

You can not access the iframe content then, the same origin policy prevents that. — misorude

Try : var value = document.getElementById("value1").innerText — Abdes

You can use textContent:

 var textDiv = document.getElementById("value1").textContent;
