Can I use external domain with jQuery media plugin ?

[Sourabh]

Hello

it is about jQuery media plugin (http://malsup.com/jquery/media/
misc.html)


Can I use


<a id="mike" class="media {type: 'html'}" href="http://
www.google.co.in">

This to load EXTERNAL DOMAIN html page in an iframe that media plugin
I create.
When I tried above code it did not work.Do I need to do anything else
for this ?

Thanks in advance

From what I've seen the answer is no..

The workaround is to build a redirect page in whatever backend processing
language you're using (ColdFusion, JSP, .Net, PHP), then call the redirect
page in the href.

Yes, this should work. The media plugin just creates an iframe for
this content.
