I have seen a couple of other threads relatively similar but I still find my problem unique so I hope you guys give me a chance. What I want to do: use proxy to bypass same origin policy and to save these values (that changes and need to be checked by timer) into variables that can be modified. A server contains data.asp which looks something like this and updates from time to time (although with a bit more data): { "Title":"Tile of song" ,"Artist":"The artist" ,"Album":"The album" ,"CDCover":"/covers/randomcover.jpg" } The method I have tried is like the one on http://qnimate.com/same-origin-policy-in-nutshell/#Same_Origin_Policy_for_AJAX. In case you guys don't want to follow the link I've posted the data here as well. <script> function loadXMLDoc() { var xmlhttp; if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); } else { xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() { if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200) { document.getElementById("myDiv").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText; } } xmlhttp.open("GET","http://www.qnimate.com/ajaxdata.php",true); xmlhttp.send(); } </script> </head> <body> <button type="button" onclick="loadXMLDoc()">Request data</button> <div id="myDiv"></div> And the proxy file: <?php echo file_get_contents('http://www.qscutter.com/ajaxdata.txt'); ?> So what I want to do is store the data into variables that I can alter, not show it inside a div using innerHTML. Preferably check this ever so often for changes as well. Suggestions? I can add that I have the permission from the server owner to retrieve the information and to use it but no possibility to add script to their server, hence the proxy bypass attempt.
