load html-code into string

[Axel Gallus]

Is there a way in javascrip, to load the html-code of a webpage like
www.amazon.com
into a string? E.g.
string htmlcode = load_into_string( www.amazon.com);

Thx in advance

I'm not sure how to get the code for the *entire* page, but loading the
page in a hidden iframe, and then grabbing document.body.innerHTML on
that frame would get you the html source of the body for that page...

Not with web security, if the page is from another server.

===========

Try [IE]:

<script type='text/javascript'>

var http = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");

function getUrl(url) {
http.open("GET",url,false);
http.send();
return http.responseText;
}

htmlCode = getUrl('http://www.amazon.com')

alert(htmlCode)

</script>

Don't see other way than to copy-paste by hand from :

view-source:http://www.amazon.com

entered in location bar.
