Cross site AJAX HttpRequest problems and how to create a Proxy handler |
||||||||
Most of us are familiar with the AJAX post() and getJSON() methods of remotely calling and passing around data, I use them with abundance when building applications. One thing I had not considered until recently is that all my AJAX Http requests are usually internal to that application, which also means they are on the same server and domain.
I recently jumped into a project where the application spanned 24 domains, and had been developed to use a core component library to help code re use. The problem with this arose when you are on one domain (www.domain1.com) and you want to make a request to a different domain (www.domain2.com). You encounter something called the 'same-Origin' policy.
This article deals with how to create a proxy to handle cross site AJAX http Requests.
