ajax - Get a distant text file with Javascript without Jquery -

this question has answer here:

• origin not allowed access-control-allow-origin 21 answers

i'm looking content of text file in javascript parse after. know how jquery, used call ajax function jsonp, but, time without framework.

i did code lot of try nothing succeed. here last version :

var url = 'https://url.com/videoslist.txt';  var xhr = new xmlhttprequest(); xhr.onreadystatechange = process; xhr.open("get", url, true); xhr.send();  function process() {   if (xhr.readystate == 4) {     console.log(xhr.responsetext);   } } 

the code seems ok browser (chromium) returns me :

> xmlhttprequest cannot load > https://url.com/videoslist.txt. origin > http://localhost:8888 not allowed access-control-allow-origin. 

cross-site scripting not allowed under default security settings.. code work if requested url on same domain page came from.

if have control of remote server, can add header response:

access-control-allow-origin: * 

but xmlhttprequest (or used be) different, between different browsers (mainly ie). means need "library shim", unify code across inconsistency.. i'd stick jquery if possible :)
