the url is input by end users as string on my page, so may point to any domains.
JavaScript in current page needs to sniff the url, verify whether it's still valid, and return the types as image, or video, or audio, even considering html5 video audio tag and existent flash embed. And No need to wait for the complete file transfer.
Can someone help, from concept? thanks very much.
i'm aware the cross domain problem on ajax. So no idea on basic how-to.
