It looks like you're trying to use standard XmlHttpRequest Ajax techniques, which will not work in OpenSocial applications. (The reason for this is because the gadget will run on a different domain from your PHP script, and web browsers limit these types of connections to same domain transfers only).
You should look into the gadgets.io.makeRequest function to pass data to remote servers. Here's an article describing what you can do with this function: http://wiki.opensocial.org/index.php?title=Introduction_to_makeRequest ~Arne On Jun 18, 11:28 am, Prakhar <hiprak...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi friends! > > Hope you are keeping up a good health and life. > > I am trying to build an os app where theres a page where i need to > send the form data to a php page using the httprequest method.
