Well the problem is that it's going to have to be a cross domain request. The "client" will be an AIR app runnning on my machine, and at that point any request, to any domain, would be "cross domain".
So I don't think it's the getJSON method that's at fault...it appears to be that CF doesn't understand JSONp which is what the getJSON call is expecting to see. -----Original Message----- From: Neil Middleton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2008 10:02 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: SPAM: Re: Coldfusion & JSONp What happens when you use $.ajax()? $.ajax({ url: "http://www.commadelimited.com/uploads/bullhorn/bullhorn.cfc ?method=retriveData&jsoncallback=?" , datatype: "json" , method: "get" , success: function() { /* do some stuff */ } , error: function (XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) { alert(errorThrown); } ) (or something similar) Neil On Thu, Mar 13, 2008 at 3:44 PM, Andy Matthews <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Does anyone know anything about JSONp?
