Then I suggest you tell us how...?

With a serverside proxy, yes of course... Then it is simple, but
a cross-domain XMLHttpRequest directly from the client?

it's still simple, you just configure IE to "access data sources
across domains" or in Mozilla you get appopriate browser privileges
for your script.

Smple doesn't mean practical though.

Excactly... Which means it is't usable at all except when you're
working with an intranet where one have complete control over the UAs.

Possibilities:

A) The OP used `document.domai n' since the domains were different but
their second-level domain was not.

B) a) The OP used a signed script or set a preference so that no signed
script was necessary, then he requested the required privilege.

b) The OP did not sign the script and accepted that users would get
a security dialog when he requested the required privilege.

C) None of the above.

D) (and the main one) OP goes to say

to take any content stealing script of his choice (free or
"commercial ") and enjoy ever after.

I just checked out what I had done before - and noticed that I had only
tested it as a local file - never on a server.

As a local file, it's no problem to get the HTML response from, say,
Google or Yahoo (which are the targets that I tried). But when I put
the same file on a server, I get "permission denied".

So, I suppose that technically I've done it, but not in any useful
manner. My apologies for the fogged memory...

Hi I have asked this on the official asp.net forums but no luck so thought I'd try here Assume you have a page with a filter control and a grid view and many other controls on it. When the filter changes you want the gridview to change but nothing else. In particular all you would like to happen is for an ajax call to occur and a new grid view to be returned.

3 quick questions... 1. Are the controls in the AJAX Futures download "beta" or the release and stable version? 2. Also, where is the best way to learn how to implement these? (Other than by downloading the stuff at asp.net/ajax.) 3. When will the new version of AJAX be out? Will it be included with the Visual Studio 2008 release?

Greetings, I'd like to implement some AJAX features on an existing ASP.NET site. I have one example of doing this but, otherwise, don't know much about it. I have one question, though, about getting started: I notice that there are project templates for creating AJAX this and AJAX that. I'm a little confused about this. Am I not able to add AJAX features to an existing Web form? Why is it necessary to select an AJAX form or whatever?

I am looking for a clean solution to a problem that I solved in, what I call, a "dirty" way. Here is what I want to do. I have a dropdown list. Clicking on an item in the dropdown list invokes an AJAX call that gets data which populates the entire lower part of my screen. It does this with an innerHTML for the div tag that holds all of this. This works fine. I also have an "Edit" button that I want to show next to dropdown list,...
