The following javascript code gives me “>success-<“, i.e. empty data. Pasting the url in my browser gives me the expected content.

$.get("http://company.tld/wiki/api.php?action=query&titles=Page%20Title&format=xml&prop=revisions&rvprop=content", function (data, status) {
    alert(">" + status + "-" + data + "<");
});

It’s a MediaWiki wiki. Here’s the MediaWiki API specification: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Query

    You might breach the ajax cross domain policy there.
    Is that domain you try to access yours? better said, the one from your script?

    From my experience, if you try to access data from a foreign domain, the success handler will fire regardless. But as you describe, with no data at all.
