Allow Ajax request cross domain?
 

Hi,

I have searched and searched...

Is there a way of using the Ajax httpRequest cross domain?

thanks

No. For security reasons JavaScript cannot access anything beyond the domain of the current page. This is known as the "same origin policy" and prevents a document or script loaded from one origin from getting or setting properties of a document from a different origin.


All advice is supplied packaged by intellectual weight, and not by volume. Contents may settle slightly in transit.

I was told that I can buy a program that allows it from here: http://www.ajax-cross-domain.com/

hmm...

Also, someone else said I can build a Proxy?!

Sure - but the operative word is buy. That program is written in Perl and outputs its content as a JavaScript file. That works around the "same origin" policy.

thanks, might use JSON

in some condition:

best regards

all browsers since IE8 support cross-site ajax. JSON can't do anything that xml can, though JSONp is potential solution.
