Hey everyone, this is a very tough problem I am facing right now in JavaScript.

I'm designing this script to load a page like an IFrame but is using AJAX, the only problem is that I need to edit certain attributes before displaying them through changing an element's innerHTML attribute.

Using the normal xmlHttp request, it retrieves a html document. But is there any way I could actually handle it through some kind of DOM before actually displaying it?

Modifying them after I display them is troublesome as the browser would convert relative links into absolute paths.

Using XML to load the document was fine, but then there was no way to generate the HTML code without lots of hassle.

Is there any other way?

PS: An older version of script is in my site, but it uses substr which is very messy.
