MMHttp.getText()
Availability
Dreamweaver UltraDev 4, enhanced in Dreamweaver MX.
Description
Retrieves the contents of the document at the specified URL.
Arguments
URL, {serverScriptsFolder}
• The URL argument is an absolute URL on a web server. If http:// is omitted from the URL, Dreamweaver assumes
HTTP protocol.
• The serverScriptsFolder argument is an optional string that names a particular folder—relative to the Configuration
folder on the application server—from which you want to retrieve server scripts. To retrieve the scripts,
Dreamweaver uses the appropriate transfer protocol (such as FTP, WebDAV, or Remote File System).
Dreamweaver copies these files to the _mmServerScripts subfolder under the root folder for the current site.
If an error occurs, Dreamweaver reports it in the statusCode property of the returned object.
MMHttp.getTextCallback()

Arguments
callbackFunc, URL, {serverScriptsFolder}
• The callbackFunc argument is the JavaScript function to call when the HTTP request is complete.
• The URL argument is an absolute URL on a web server; if http:// is omitted from the URL, Dreamweaver assumes
HTTP protocol.
• The serverScriptsFolder argument is an optional string that names a particular folder—relative to the Configuration
folder on the application server—from which you want to retrieve server scripts. To retrieve the scripts,
Dreamweaver uses the appropriate transfer protocol (such as FTP, WebDAV, or Remote File System).
Dreamweaver retrieves these files and passes them to the function that callbackFunc identifies.
If an error occurs, Dreamweaver MX reports it in the statusCode property of the returned object.
