I've just starting learning jQuery and AJAX. I'm able to load a local page (on my disk) into a div via jQuery.load(), but external sites don't seem to work. I've even used wireshark to check if the data is being sent from the server (it is). Sample code is below:
<html>
<head>
<script src='jquery-1.4.2.min.js'></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
// $('#test').load('localpage.htm'); works!
$('#test').load('http://www.google.com/'); // does not work!
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id='test'></div>
</body>
</html>
Is it possible to do this in the first place? If so, how?
