reading content of other html document

[hugo]

hello,

i want to access via javascript the content of another html-page (just the url is known) and pass it to a js-variable. I don't want the other page beeing shown in a browser window.

...something like:
var newContent = otherUrl....document.form...

is this possible?

thanks,
david.

it won't be possible using javascript if the other page is an out of domain page.
If it isn't then you may need to open that pae in a frame or a child window and then get the contents from there...

use an IFrame like:

<table width="70%" border="1" align="center">
<tr>
<td><iframe src="Document URL Here" name="middle" width="100%" height="480"></iframe></td>
</tr>
</table>
