Identify iframe with specific string in src

Question

The target webpage sometimes contains a single embedded iframe video. I wish to open those specific videos in the current tab.

<iframe allowfullscreen="true" webkitallowfullscreen="true" mozallowfullscreen="true" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" width="100%" src="https://streamview.com/v/wkx5ntgwdv5b"></iframe>

My code:

(function() {
    'use strict';

    var openontaB = document.querySelector('iframe').src;
    window.location.href = openontaB;
})();

The issue is that the above code does not open the correct iframe src. How would I make it work/match only for an iframe that contains the string streamview.com?

Thanks

var links = document.getElementById("iframe"); for (var i = 0, l = links.length; i < l; i++) { var link = links[i]; if (link.href.indexOf("streamview.com") !== -1) { (function() { 'use strict'; var openontaB = document.querySelector('iframe').src; window.location.href = openontaB; })(); } } still not working — user18953534

You can also do something like this:

// look for an iframe with 'streamview.com' in its src
const iframe = document.querySelector('iframe[src*="streamview.com"]');
// if found, set location
iframe && (location.href = iframe.src);

Try (untested):

(function() {
    'use strict';

    const allIF = document.querySelectorAll('iframe');

    allIF.forEach( frm => {
        const openontaB = frm.src;
        if (openontaB.includes('streamview.com')){
            window.location.href = openontaB;
        }
    });
})();
