<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Yes that is same origin policy. The only way to get around it is to use AJAX with JSONP which exploits the open policy for <script> elements (in a similar way to how you can do <img src=”any_image_url”>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color:#1F497D">I should have explained - I can get it working via rss_proxy but not without<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color:#1F497D">I have the following:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">To load data into the HTML5 player you’ll want to do an ajax call. In its simplest form:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">$.ajax({<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The only way to do that is to do an ajax JSON with callback request (well tehnically its not ajax) but the page must return a valid JSON object wrapped in a function name, which may require creating a new file

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Take a look at how the delicious, rss and youtuberss ones work, it’ll be similar.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">One think to think about though is that If you get it working in toolkits using proxy_rss then it won’t work if exported to run in a scorm player…<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Hi Fay<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">like Jonathan I thought I'd have a go with the html5 stuff and at converting one of the pages you haven't yet converted. As the QR code page was one I put together I thought I'd have a go at that. I used your textGraphics.html
page as a starting point and have this working reasonably well as far as I can tell but have attached a copy here rather than committing it for now.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The bit I haven't got working and haven't even tried yet is how to grab the short url. In the flash version I used readfile() and in the case of xot use it together with rssproxy e.g.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">myurl.readFile(_level0.site_url + 'rss_proxy.php?rss=' + "<a href="http://is.gd/api.php?longurl=">http://is.gd/api.php?longurl=</a>"+pastedurl);<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">my question is what's the equivalent of readFile for use with the xenith code? e.g. to read and display the result of something like
<a href="http://is.gd/api.php?longurl=%22http://nottingham.ac.uk/xerte">http://is.gd/api.php?longurl="http://nottingham.ac.uk/xerte</a>" which just displays the text on screen<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Cheers<o:p></o:p></span></p>
