Hi,

The response of the first request contains the header
"access-control-allow-origin: *". This is known as Cross-Origin Resource
Sharing ( see http://www.w3.org/TR/cors/ ) and allows to call other domain
with XHR.
Be careful, not all browser support this feature.

> MessageBox with json response is shown.
> The request is marked as OK in Chrome -> Developer Tools -> Network.

>  - if target url is a simple site url (for example:

> Empty Message box in OnSuccess handler is shown.
> The request is marked as Canceled in Chrome.

> So whats going on?
> I thought I can reach other sites only if I use JsonRequestBuilder,

> Does simple RequestBuilder also create script elements all the time?
> If no, then why first request is working?
> If yes, then why the second request is cancelled?

> GWT 2.4, Chrome 19.0 or FF 13, Development Mode.
