I want to get the HTML response page from the cross-domain URL.
for this I am using the ajax request as,
$.ajax({ type: 'GET', url: "http://wcidevapps.com/salescentral/idisk/0001000383/iDisk", dataType: "json", success: function (response) { $(response).find('li a').each(function () { listHref.push($(this).attr('href')); }); } }); But after requesting it doesn't respond with any result back.
<script src="Scripts/jquery-1.4.1.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> function NameAFunctionName() { $.ajax({ url: 'http://wcidevapps.com/salescentral/idisk/0001000383/iDisk', type: 'GET', dataType: 'json', headers: { //WRITE IF THEIR HAVE SOME HEADER REQUEST OR DATA }, crossDomain: true, success: function (data, textStatus, xhr) { console.log(data); }, error: function (xhr, textStatus, errorThrown) { console.log(errorThrown); } }); } </script> Check documentation : http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/
crossDomain (default: false for same-domain requests, true for cross-domain requests)
Type: Boolean
If you wish to force a crossDomain request (such as JSONP) on the same domain, set the value of crossDomain to true. This allows, for example, server-side redirection to another domain. (version added: 1.5)
My suspicion is that you see the issue because the page you're requesting does not respond with a json(p) response, but responds with a redirect to:
http://wcidevapps.com/salescentral/idisk/0001000383/iDisk/ (note the trailing slash)
which then returns content type:
Content-Type:text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1 Edit: If your intention is to retrieve the above site's data cross-domain, for further parsing by your script, I suggest that you choose one of the following:
Assumption 1: YOU are in control of the pages on server "http://wcidevapps.com"
In that case, you have two options: Either add CORS header "Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *" to the response (and configure the client ajax() call with dataType:"html"), or create a special JSON(P) page that delivers the same data as JSON (with padding) (and configure the client ajax() call like in the OP, with dataType:"jsonp")
Assumption 2: YOU are NOT in control of the pages on server http://wcidevapps.com
In that case, the only option I can think of is setup a proxy on a site that you control. Have that proxy "proxy" the requests/responses to "http://wcidevapps.com", but add the CORS header "Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *" to the response (and configure the client ajax() call with dataType:"html")
If you are using asp.net web service then you need to add this to webconfig file;
<system.webServer> <directoryBrowse enabled="true"/> <httpProtocol> <customHeaders> <add name="Access-Control-Allow-Origin" value="*" /> <add name="Access-Control-Allow-Headers" value="Content-Type" /> </customHeaders> </httpProtocol> </system.webServer>
