[Javascript] Any creative way to pull html content samewayjsfiles are pulled

I once had to do it for a CAD/CAM viewing tool that worked with D-sized
drawings that were posted to the web.  ARGGH!  It was comparatively nasty,
but I'll see what I can recall of the various tricks that were needed.

I don't believe DynApi is REALLY necessary, as I figured out how to do it
before the product ever existed.

I'll get back to the list once I've had a chance to study the issue in
depth.
