JAVASCRIPT opendoc

[ANNON]

I am trying to open an html document on a html page as a text
variable. So that in a perfect world the code would look like this:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaS cript">
var test = document.open(" file.html");
document.write( " " + test + " ");
</SCRIPT>

So basically I would be retrieving the text out of that file, and
using it on the current page I am on a VARIABLE.

Any help will be apreciated.

Thanks,

Not in a client-side javascript in the default security environment, you
can't.

Solutions that are either not cross-browser, not stictly client-side script,
and/or not default security:
java applet
server-side script to create a javascript text file from the html file
ActiveX
COM
HTA

Or open it in a frame / iframe.

That will not work if the content is outside the domain of the opener
(security error). You can't access the content of a frame from another frame
if it's in a different domain of the script trying to access it. Even a
different protocol would throw the error.

Otherwise it would work in DOM browsers pretty well.
