Get the output of a webpage and assign it to a Div...

Expand Post »

Does anyone know of a way to retrieve the output of a webpage and place the output in the current web page (not using iframes)?

For example, here is a simple web page (test.html):

<html>
This is just a test
</html>

I would like to take the output of this page and insert into my current page:

<div id="test">
This is just a test
</div>

Thanks in advance,

Mapper

Re: Get the output of a webpage and assign it to a Div...

Would something like this work:

JavaScript / DHTML / AJAX Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
function testIIS(){
var http1 = getHTTPObject();
http1.open("GET", "http://devsptl/test2/test.txt", true);
 
http1.onreadystatechange = function() {
	if (http1.readyState == 4) {
		alert(http1.responseText);
	}
    }
 
}
function testIIS(){
var http1 = getHTTPObject();
http1.open("GET", "http://devsptl/test2/test.txt", true);

http1.onreadystatechange = function() {
	if (http1.readyState == 4) {
		alert(http1.responseText);
	}
    }

}
