Javascript won’t execute in a file retrieved by Ajax

I use Ajax to retrieve content from another webpage, it gets all the HTML fine, but none of the Javascript executes after retrieval. So if I told Ajax to retrieve an html file consiting of just <p>hello</p><script type=”text/javascript>alert(‘hello’);</script> it will just show “hello” and never execute the javascript.

@HoboScriptAug 06.2008 — This exact thread came up just a few days ago. It's probably on page 2. I wrote a solution that strips script tags and evals the code inside.

Is "Bulletproof" doing some page scraping, trying to grab content from an external server ?
