Hi,
I'm very, very new to javascript, so please bear with me if this is a
silly question.
My problem is this.
I would like to some javascript connect to a URL on the same webserver
and read a CGI. The output from this CGI is not plain HTML but rather
data which needs to be displayed in a moving graph. Coming from a Perl
background I'd say I'm looking to do something like:
while (my $data = read_url(http://whatever) {
print some pretty moving data across the screen;
}
Is something like this possible to do in javascript?
Tks,
Rich.
