yes.... and no. javascript can submit url to the server, server can open stream to that url and fetch content from thirdparty server, and then server can send thirdparty content back to the javascript.

Thanks
Apparently, the emulator works correctly under iOS, but it does not accept keyboard input - neither the one in the touchscreen nor an external bluetooth one -. Do you think that it would be possible to implement it? If it was possible, it will be perfect to distribute MSX games at the App Store!
Provided the license allows it… Can I hope it’s BSD?
It could work if the webmsx.org site first would get the file through PHP or something.
@ppeccin: wouldn't CORS also work in this scenario? (Then the server @ vampier.net should add an Access-Control-Allow-Origin header to the HTTP response?)
Yes, that may work. Next release, WMSX will try to use CORS-aware requests to download content from other domains. If the server providing the file is properly configured to allow it.
Thanks for the remainder!
@ppeccin: Looking forward to future developments of the emu!
Have you perhaps thought about setting up a roadmap? (Like you said earlier you're working on line-accuracy ATM.)
Would you prefer Github tickets for bug reports / feature requests, or does this (forum) work fine for you?
Well, I don't have a clear and structured plan yet. First I will try so solve the more important compatibility problems.
I have set up a discussion forum for WMSX, its linked in the bottom of my page:
http://groups.google.com/group/webmsx
But this forum is also fine for general comments and feedback!
Tried to run "TOQUE!.ROM" (brazilian musical keyboard simulation from Gradiente, made in BASIC) and got "out of memory" error.
Provided the license allows it… Can I hope it’s BSD?
I don't know much about licenses. I just followed advice from a friend, its using the GNU Affero license.
But I can always change that in the future if for the best, or grant license for different usages / people as we need.

Maybe its because the disk interface is taking memory and this cart does not expect a disk interface present?
Try to open the emulator with no disk support: http://webmsx.org?preset=nodisk
Also, where can I find this ROM? ;)
Could you please point me to some games or programs (in DSK format) designed to run under the MSX-DOS environment?
Just not the craziest and most advanced demos of history please.... :-)
"Normal", easy software, would be nice. I hardly did any testing in this environment yet, and something terribly wrong seems to be happening when I tried to load the 2 demos mentioned earlier. They did not seem to even get loaded, instead the command seems ignored...
This uses MSX-DOS. Type 'living' to boot the game.
Bingo.
I thought that was the problem, but I didn't find any way to disable disk support.
you can find it on MSXPro website : http://msxpro.com/aplicativos.html

I also could not make debug mode work... Google Chrome version 39, on Windows 7 professional.
