title: Very Simple jQuery .load Example Not Working
body: <p>I think this is a very simple question, but I can't seem to get it to work.  I need to use JavaScript (specifically jQuery, apparently) to grab some content from a page, and pull it into another page.  I've researched this quite a bit, but can't seem to get even a very simple example to work.</p>
  
  <p>Here is the page I'm trying to get content from:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"&gt;
  &lt;html&gt;
  &lt;head&gt;
  &lt;title&gt;Test&lt;/title&gt;
  &lt;/head&gt;
  &lt;body&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;This is the test html page.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/body&gt;
  &lt;/html&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is the page I'm trying to use to pull the content:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"&gt;
  &lt;html&gt;
  &lt;head&gt;
  &lt;title&gt;PullData&lt;/title&gt;
  &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"&gt;
  &lt;/head&gt;
  &lt;body&gt;
  
  &lt;ol id="result"&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;
  
  &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
  $('#result').load('test.html');
  &lt;/script&gt;
  
  &lt;/body&gt;
  &lt;/html&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I open the page it doesn't seem to do anything.  I'm basically trying to follow the examples from jquery.com: <a href="http://api.jquery.com/load/" rel="nofollow">http://api.jquery.com/load/</a></p>
  
  <p>Both html pages are in the same folder somewhere on my C drive.</p>
  
  <p>What am I missing?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for your help!</p>
