cross site scripting

I wish to request a webpage on a different website and read some data from it, but doing this on the browser client rather than the web server.

I've tried IFRAME and XMLHttpRequest in various different ways but keep getting access denied errors due to cross-site scripting restrictions.

Any neat tricks around this?

yes.
and no, i won't tell you what they are. you'll have to find them yourself. of course by the time that happens someone who cares enough to endure the horror that is bugzilla will probably report the ones i know about and they'll probably be fixed.
