How to get Firebug to tell me what error jquery's .load() is returning?
- by Edward Tanguay
I'm trying to find out what data/error jquery's .load() method is returning in the following code (the #content element is blank so I assume there is some kind of error).
Where do I find in Firebug what content or error .load() is returning?
How can I use console.log to find out at least what content is being returned?

google.load("jquery", "1.3.2");
google.setOnLoadCallback(function() {
$('#loadButton').click(loadDataFromExernalWebsite);
});
function loadDataFromExernalWebsite() {
console.log("test");
$('#content').load('http://www.tanguay.info/web/getdata/index.php?url=http://www.tanguay.info/knowsite/data.txt', function() {
alert('Load was performed.');
});
}
