How to get the contents of a remote page using JavaScript?

Question

I have the URL of a remote page from another domain that I have to download, parse and update the DOM of the current page. I found examples of this with the new ActiveXObject ("Msxml2.XMLHTTP") , but this, in my opinion, is limited to IE, and with the new java.net.URL , but I don't want to use Java. Are there any alternatives?

Just use PHP:

<?php
$url = "http://www.domaintoretrieve.com";

ob_start();
include_once( $url );

$html = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

?>

$ html contains the entire page for management if necessary.

The XMLHTTPRequest object is common to most modern browsers and is a powerful AJAX web application.
