I needed this "feature" not long ago for a project of mine and I was
suggested here in the group to do smth like this:
[CODE]
//Fix Ajax to allow for loading from file:// urls
if (location.protocol == 'file:' || location.protocol == 'resource:') {
Request.implement({
isSuccess: function() {
return (!this.status || (this.status >= 200) && (this.status <
300));
}
});
}
[/CODE]
Place it in the DOMREADY, before doing any request at all...
Needless to say, it works like a charm.... and you still use REQUEST as
usual, without worrying if its local or remote... In my particular project,
it would be a CDROM based application, and all "htmls" were requested
directly from the CD....
Cheers!
