No, this is not possible via javascript. Any request made via javascript must made be to the same domain as the originator. This is a security feature of most browsers known as the Same Origin Policy.

The only work-around is to scrape the source of the external domain via a server-side language, such as PHP or ASP.Net and then make the AJAX request to that locally.

IF website1 & website2 from maches the same origin policy then you can access the Iframe from the JS, if you have access to both of the websites you can pass the origin policy by using JSONP for example appendHtml(html) otherwise no you cant (as fast ideas came into my mind)

hope this helps,
