title: Can I use Javascript to send http request to a specific IP address?
body: <p>I wonder if it is possible in Javascript to send HTTP GET request to a specific IP address? For example, with curl in Linux I can do this: <code>curl google.com --connect-to ::123.123.123.123</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Sorry I did not mention, I meant to run the Javascript in a browser. That is, when a Javascript is loaded in a browser, is there a way to let the browser shot a HTTP request to a specific IP address?</p>
