It is, through ActiveX with IE and built in with Mozilla. If you can
forgive my ugly browser check and the fact that Internet Explorer give
you a security alert and Mozilla doesn't have permissions to open the
URL (never done this cross-domain before, but my guess is it should be
possible) this is a good example. Change the Google URL to a local file
(no need to specifiy the file:// protocol, just set it to "myfile.html")
to see it work in both browsers.
//----
var oRequest;
if(document.all) {
// Internet Explorer
oRequest = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
}
else {
// Mozilla
oRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
}
oRequest.open("GET", "http://www.google.com/", false);
oRequest.send(null);
alert(oRequest.responseText);
//----
