Couple things

First you have an in your javascript code. It is missing a ")" after your curly braces on your last line.

Secondly, I assume you are also including the jquery library, as this is jquery code, otherwise it won't run if you don't include/src it.

I ran your code with the included jquery library and adding the missing ) and it seemed to run OK, but it would not connect to your script page as I received a permission denied error on your gateway page.

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script> 
        <script type="text/javascript">
            $(document).ready(function () {
                var home_add = 'http://myweb.net:3300/gateway';
                $('#handshake').click(function () {
                    alert(" sending json data");
                    $.ajax({
                        /* start ajax function to send data */
                        url: home_add,
                        type: 'POST',
                        datatype: 'json',
                        contanttype: 'text/json',
                        async: false,
                        error: function () {
                            alert("handshake didn't go through")
                        },
                        /* call disconnect function */
                        data: {
                            "supportedConnectionTypes": "long-polling",
                            "channel": "/meta/handshake",
                            "version": "1:0"         },
                        success: function (data) {
                            $("p").append(data + "<br/>");
                            alert("successful handshake")
                        }
                    });
                });
            })

        </script>
