    How to get text content from another website by javascript in asp.net?

    hello...
    i'm creating a web application in asp.net in which i would like to give user a one JavaScript code, through which the user can get content from my website to his/her own website.

    i've used one generic handler to process user request in my website.

    so, now How can i do this, i've tried using jQuery..
    jQuery can only process requests from current server, not from other server (if i'm not wrong)

    code on www.otherwebsit e.com
    Code:
    <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.x.x.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$('#result').load('www.myWebSite.com/getData.ashx');
</script>
<body>
<div id="result">

</div>

</body>
    Above code isn't working.. :(

    is there any other way to send content from my website to other website??

    any help would b greatly appreciated.
    -thanx

      you need to build a server side web method[using screen scraping in asp.net] which fetches data from external site and sends it to browser

      The resource cannot be found.

              its not possible because same domain policy restrictions

                  Its too late to inform you guys that I've achieved it using javascript to generate an <Iframe > on otherwebsite.co m and in iframe src I kept mywebsite.com/getData.ashx.

                  Thanks to all of you who replied to my thread.
