Richard,
Thanks for your reply! I have the goal of serving dynamic content on
pages from a sever (A) that can serve little more than javascript. I
have a separate perl/php capable server (B) that I have written a few
server side scripts for, but I haven't found a way to display the
generated content on B through a page served by A. (The purpose is to
augment the capabilities of a blog account on server A.)
On A, I don't have the ability to make a request to B, parse the
result, and pass the rest on, since A is not server side capable. I
was hoping the process could be as simple as displaying pictures from a
separate server with the tag:
<IMG [...] src="http://www.remotedomain.com/pic.jpg">.
Following that model, I have already tried dynamically genereating a
".js" file and including it with the tag:
<SCRIPT [...] src="http://www.myBserver.com/generated.js">
Unfortunately, my blog account has a server side parser which
eliminates the src attribute of the SCRIPT tag if the src doesn't
belong to one of 12 approved domains (for security reasons.)
If I could use javascript to open a *text* file on a remote server,
read in a string, and print it, I wouldn't be including remote .js
files - I would just be displaying text from a remote site.
If that won't work, is there any way I could do a direct text include,
similar to the way I can use an IMG tag to display remote graphics?
Thanks again!
-Joel
