Way around 'permission denied' error? ActiveX?

[J. M. Harper]

Hi. I have a framed page
<http://sga.gatech.edu/critique/CourseSurvey.php?Prefix=FREN&CourseNum=2001&Sectio n=A&Term=0&Year=2004>.
I need one frame to access the cookies, the page location, and the
form elements of the framed page. I could do it with javascript,
except the framed page is on a different server completely, and
javascript won't allow you permission to access a framed page's
elements on a different server. Is there a way using ActiveX (someone
suggested) or any other means to be able to access the cookies, the
page location, and/or the form elements on the framed page, even if
the framed page is on a different server? If so, how would I go about
doing that? Thank you for your help.

You can't since they aren't in the same domain.

Yep, thats the way it works.

No.

You can't.
