This is what i tried now:
<script>
function readTextFile(file)
{
var rawFile = new XMLHttpRequest();
rawFile.open("GET", file, true);
rawFile.onreadystatechange = function ()
{
if(rawFile.readyState === 4)
{
if(rawFile.status === 200 || rawFile.status == 0)
{
var allText = rawFile.responseText;
alert(allText);
}
}
}
rawFile.send(null);
}
</script>
<script>
readTextFile("http://newsxpressmedia.com/files/theme/test.txt");
</script>
But it's not working the page throw like meassage without a message error. Just popup a window since it's not working.
What i want to do on my site is to read the file content line by line an display it on my website.
The does exist on the link: http://newsxpressmedia.com/files/theme/test.txt
Is your site same as newsxpressmedia.com? If not it is a cross-domain issue. Browsers do not allow ajax calls to access different domain. More info .
This sounds like a same origin security issue . Without some special cross origin permissions from the target domain, the browser won't let you do ajax to a site that's at a different domain than your web page.
See MDN's page on the same-origin policy for details: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Same_origin_policy_for_JavaScript
See MDN's page on CORS for cross origin permissions: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/HTTP/Access_control_CORS , but this requires cooperation from the target site.
The typical work-arounds are either to have your server work as a proxy so you can request the file from your server and your server gets the file from the actual web site or find a way to use an iframe in your web page.
