Hi, I have a web page that will need to also use the content from a web page on another server. How can I use javascript to pull the content of that url into my page?
 
I am confused. What is the javascript code to reference naother document so that it will show in my window?
 
Adam just told you. Google for AJAX. Use it and a combination of innerHTML to pull the content of a foreign page into your page.

That did not answer the question. Perhaps I am not phrasing the question correctly. Something like document.location=myURL should work, but I'm not sure of the correct syntax.
 
Using document.location will redirect the entire page to a new page, the same way clicking a hyperlink will. The way you worded your question made it sound like you wanted to have your own custom page with content from another page pulled into it, so that the content of the 2 pages mixed together. If I am wrong then you need to be more descriptive of what it is you want. If I am right, then the answers above already answered your question.

If you want additional content in your page pulled from another page on another server you are looking at 2 options - frames or AJAX. There is no other special javascript command (like document.location) to do it all for you.
