permission exception when access to frame content

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Sep 25.2005

I need my script to analyze some external web page content

I use iframe to load this page and try to get content by this code:

[CODE]var iframe = document.getElementById(“loadFrame”);

var text = iframe.contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML;[/CODE]

And I get exception “[I]Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to get property HTMLDocument.body[/I]” in Firefox Browser.

How i can bypass this problem ?

Or what another way to get content of external page ?

But I need this page only localy for me.

Maybe there are settings to switch this off in firefox ?

Sorry if offtopic question.
