I like to know if there is a JS function to retrieve a URL into a variable
cURL = somefunction("http://www.domain.com");
Is there something like this?
TIA,
Tom

By "retrieve a URL" do you mean of the page containing the JS?
<html>
<head>
<title>loc~href.htm</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
var url = document.location.href;
document.write(url);
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

I suspect the OP is actually referring to retrieving the content
of another URL (than the page itself) into a JS var as text.

I could be using the wrong terminology, what I ment is to get the content of
the web page the URL pointing to....so
var "url" would contain something like:
"<html>
<head>
.....
......
/html>"
Am I making sense? sorry if still not ....
TIA,
Tom

Replace ".invalid" with ".uk" to reply by e-mail.

YES, correct, that is what I like to do...

Thanks for that, but I think that asi a way too complicated solution....
If there is no simpler, I can just create a new window with the URL and read
the content of the DOC if nothing better, but I do beleive thre should be a
simpler solution...?
Thanks anyway,
Tom

Will this help? Watch for word-wrap.
Change the value of "onclick=XML()" as necessary.
<html>
<head>
<title>XMLHTTP.htm</title>
<script type="text/vbscript">
Sub XML(strURL)
Dim strXML
strXML = strURL
Dim objXML
Set objXML = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
objXML.Open "GET", strURL, False
objXML.Send
If Err.Number = 0 And objXML.Status = 200 Then
strXML = objXML.ResponseText
strXML = Replace(strXML,"<","<")
strXML = Replace(strXML,">",">")
strXML = Replace(strXML,vbLf,"<br>")
End If
Set objXML = Nothing
document.write(strXML)
End Sub
</script>

<input type="button" value="Click Me!"

You probably wanted the JavaScript version.
<html>
<head>
<title>Google.htm</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function XML(strURL) {
var objXML = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
objXML.open("GET",strURL,false);
objXML.send();
var strXML = objXML.responseText;
strXML = strXML.replace(/</g,'<');
strXML = strXML.replace(/>/g,'>');
strXML = strXML.replace(/\n/g,'<br>');
document.write(strXML)
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" value="Click Me! (js)"
onclick="XML('http://www.Google.com/')">
</body>

Thanks, I will give it a go. Looks like this is is what I wanted,
Thanks again,

Watching for word-wrap is the author's duty. Don't be slothful.
Change the value of "onclick=XML()" as necessary.
<html>
<head>
<title>XMLHTTP.htm</title>
<script type="text/vbscript">
Sub XML(strURL)
Dim strXML

Not only is this a javascript newsgroup, but it is also substantially a
group for web pages.
Therefore, since many differing OSs and browsers can be used to read Web
pages, a "solution" that works only with Microsoft systems is of limited
use, unless the OP has indicated otherwise. When a limited-use
"solution" is presented, a corresponding warning should be given. Yours
appears to be such a "solution", even in javascript.
