You can't. The page in the IFrame is an entirely seperate request made after the container page has been loaded by the client.

However, you may be able to do something like this by
1. Refactoring the functionality of the child page into a user control and displaying that instead of the IFRAME.
2. Use JavaScript to modify/access the child content pages control tree.
