title: load and display PNG image (Not base64) requiring basic authentication in JavaScript
body: <p>I'm so stuck on this. I need to retrieve a picture e.g. <a href="http://ip:port/icon_contact.png">http://ip:port/icon_contact.png</a> using JavaScript from another server requiring basic authentication. The server can't give base64. Don't worry about x-domain restriction.
  thanks in advance,
