    This can't be done in javascript. You need to do this on the server. Commented Jul 10, 2014 at 14:30
  • I think a better question is why do you want to do this? If I'm understanding correctly, it sounds like you want to get the source of the page that your user is attempting access and replacing it with a copy you've pulled yourself. But why?? This is what the browser is designed to do. Commented Jul 10, 2014 at 14:33

I you want a cross-domain solution (like your example for google), you can't.
