title: How to get status code of remote url using Javascript/Ajax but NOT using jQuery?
body: <p>I am trying to check if a url is reachable or not using javascript without using jQuery or the method of loading an image from that url. It would be great if I can get the status code of that url, because all I care about is that status code being 200.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried XMLHttpRequest but I learned that it does not support cross domain calls.</p>
  
  <p>Please help.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
