JQuery.ajax success function returns empty
- by viatropos
I have a very basic AJAX function in JQuery:
$.ajax({
url: "http://www.google.com",
dataType: "html",
success: function(data) {
alert(data);
}
});
But the data is always an empty string, no matter what url I go to... Why is that? I am running this locally at http://localhost:3000, and am using JQuery 1.4.2.
If I make a local response, however, like this:
$.ajax({
url: "http://localhost:3000/test",
dataType: "html",
success: function(data) {
alert(data);
}
});
...it returns the html page at that address. What am I missing here?
