xml cross port on same server?

Answer 1

I tried this, sometimes it works, sometimes not. Got no idea why, sorry.

But: The plugin you found there doesn't perform magic. It will fetch the external ressource using jsonp. The adress will be sended to a proxy(query.yahooapis.com) , which requests the URL and sends it back.

So why don't you create your own proxy. All you need is a PHP-Skript on host:8080 which receives the adress host:8181, requests the adress and print's the response. If you do this, you dont have to workaround with jsonp, because it's no same-origin-issue and security also should'nt be a problem, as long you have control over the requested ressource.
