Hello, Is it possible to load content from an external page (not relative) into div using jquery? I mean here by external page is another web application like for example: http://www.yahoo.com There is the code:

$("#externalContent").load("http://www.yahoo.com", function () {
    alert("loading finish");
});

when I use firebug I got this result: Firebug result

you see here, i highlighted the response code, it's 200 which means OK, but still no content loaded. DOES anyone know the reason?
