Hi,
I am trying to find a client-side way to determine if a page on a remote domain has changed.
I can't load the page in an iframe and examine its contents due to same origin policy.
So I tried using .getResponseHeader("Content-Length")
and .getResponseHeader("Last-Modified")
but apparently these are also restricted by SOP even though FireBug shows Content-Length
in the console.
Is there a way to do this? I just need a way to know if the page has changed.
Thx
