I'm studying javascript these days and I have question. I have variable that contain an url. I would like to save the content of the url pointed by my variable in another variable...

The first variable is something like:

var Link = http://mysite.com/json/public/search?q=variabile&k=&e=1;

If I open the link I see something like:

{



count: 1,

e: 1,

k: null,

privateresult: 0,

q: gabriel,

start: 0,

cards: [

    {

        __guid__: cdf8ee96538c3811a6a118c72365a9ec,

        company: false,

        __title__: Gabriel Butoeru,

        __class__: entity,

        services: false,

        __own__: false,

        vanity_urls: [

            gabriel-butoeru

        ]

    }

]

}

How can I save the json content in another javascript variable?

You would need a simple AJAX request to get the contents into a variable.

var xhReq = new XMLHttpRequest();

xhReq.open(GET, yourUrl, false);

xhReq.send(null);

var jsonObject = JSON.parse(xhReq.responseText);

Please note that AJAX is bound by same-origin-policy, in case that URL is different this will fail.
