One method would be to include Page B with a _javascript_ include (script src="" and have Page B put the string you're after into a _javascript_ variable.After the include, your code can see that variable as if it were on the same page.
I'm sure there's more elegant solutions though.

That's definitely possible, but I surely cannot do an script src="" from within a _javascript_ functionis there
a way I could assign the js variable (created on page B)to a global scope that I can then
access inside any _javascript_ function on page A?

You can't make HTTP requests with _javascript_.However, you can use a hidden
frame to do the dirty work.Create a hidden frame, set it's location to
your URL, then check the content of it's document to get the output from the
url (what you need) and set it to your variable. Just be careful, because
Is this the sort of thing you're looking for?

Interesting..can't hurt to try it out! Only drawbacsk seems to be how different browsers handle the IFRAME element.
Thanks Mark...

Will have to try it out. My only worry is the part where the author says...depends on version of MSXML installed. Now I'm not sure which versions of IE come with MSXML or if its a feature the client will have to download and install to access

If it helps any I've tested that script with:
Win2k IE5 6
WinXP IE whatever
Xml fetching and parsing all in one... that *is* cool.
Re IFRAME: the url for the iframe can be loaded dynamically at any time via

So, besides the XML approach (which sounds VERY interesting), there are two methods suggested.I've done both myself, and personally prefer the IFrames.
The first method would be something like so:
script src="">

x = js_string_set_in_pageB.cfm;
/script
The second would be something
