http $.post from android does not work

Question

Asp.net page with jquery 1.7.1 When I post it from an Android phone via an emulator in Eclipse the post without the http://www.somedomain.com/ works perfectly. If i include the http url it does not work. The insert into the database is fine with wfo_s.aspx but not with http://www.somedomain.com/wfo_s.aspx

If anyone can shed some light on why this is happening, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

//this does not work? //$.post("http://www.somedomain.com/wfo_s.aspx", { the_User: theheatmap, conn: db_connection }, function (data) { }); //$.post("http://www.somedomain.com/wfo_s.aspx?the_User=" + theheatmap + "&conn=" + db_connection); //this does work, why does the post to the url not work, page works fine //$.post("wfo_s.aspx", { the_User: theheatmap, conn: db_connection }, function (data) { }); //$.post("wfo_s.aspx?the_User=" + theheatmap + "&conn=" + db_connection);

Most probably http://www.somedomain.com is not the same server (domain, sub domain and protocol) as the one that served the current page. — devnull69

Tested locally or on the remote server, the http url from android emulator does not post to database. But when i just use wfo_s.aspx... it works perfectly? If I run the same code on my regular laptop both methods work. — Rob

possible duplicate of Cross-Domain Requests with jQuery ok well nevermind this is not the case I suppose. — rlemon

are you sure you are not trying to connect (locally) to localhost.com??? — rlemon

You cannot do ajax requests cross site.

There are some hacks (eg: jsonp) but not with regular requests.

Doh! I was testing Android 1.5 and then loaded Android 2.1 and the post now works.
