javscript won't read - firefox

Hi everyone,

I have to following code but I am not able to get it to work when the
data file does not have the same origin as the html file. Can anyone
help me out. The code was originally written for Netscape 4 which i
still have to test out.

Thanks,

Carl

<HTML><HEAD>
<SCRIPT language = "Javascript">
var data = new Array();
var i = 0;
var datafile = "http://www.yahoo.com";

var url = new java.net.URL(datafile);
var connect = url.openConnection();
var input = new java.io.BufferedReader(
new java.io.InputStreamReader(
connect.getInputStream()));
var aLine = ""
while((aLine = input.readLine()) != null) {
data[i++] = aLine;
}
</SCRIPT>
<BODY>

<SCRIPT language = "Javascript">

document.write("retrieveing<br>");
document.write(datafile+"<br>");
var temp = ""
for (var j = 0; j < data.length ; j++)
temp += data[j] + "<br>";
document.write(temp);

</SCRIPT>
</BODY></HTML>
