Yeah. It is actually much worse in the Ajax world, because not only can you not load data across domains, there is no way for a server to give you permission to load data from it (ala something like crossdomain.xml).
So, if you want to load crossdomain in Ajax, the only real alternative is to use a server side proxy. mike chambers [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Jan 31, 2006, at 12:01 PM, Aral Balkan wrote: > Hi Mike, > > Ah yes -- that was the use case that was cited. > > Well, we're not the only ones having this conversation it seems: > http://getahead.ltd.uk/ajax/cross-domain-xhr > > Aral > > Mike Chambers wrote: > >> It has nothing to do with selling server licenses.
