Here's a similar snippit I've been working on... it was tricky getting the contentWindow right, but maybe this provides some insight?

//get a reference to the iframe DOM node
var node_iframe = document.getElementById("myiframe");

//get a reference to the iframe's window object
var win_iframe = node_iframe.contentWindow;

//override the iframe window's open method
win_iframe.open = function(strUrl,strName,strParams){

    /* create an object (to substitute for the window object) */
    var objWin = new Object;

    /* save the open arguments in case we need them somewhere */
    objWin.strUrl = strUrl;   
    objWin.strName = strName; 
    objWin.strParams = strParams; 

    /* create a blank HTML document object, so any HTML fragments that 
     * would otherwise be written to the popup, can be written to it instead */
    objWin.document = document.implementation.createHTMLDocument(); 

    /* save the object (and document) back in the parent window, so we 
     * can do stuff with it (this has an after-change event listener that 
     * pops a YUI Panel to act as a kind of popup) -- NOTE: the object in 
     * the parent window that we're saving this to has YUI Attribute installed
     * and listens to changes to the objPopupWindow attribute... when it 
     * gets changed by this .set() operation, it shows a YUI Panel. */
    parent.MyCustomClassObjectWithYUIAttributes.set('objPopupWindow', objWin); 

    /* return the object and all its members to whatever was trying to 
     * create a popup window */
    return objWin; 
    };//end override method definition
