Hello,

  I'm attempting to use the api to add and retrieve content. Saw the
javascript code under http://www.connotea.org/wiki/WebAPIAuthentication

 

Basically replicated it to,

 

request = window.XMLHttpRequest ? new XMLHttpRequest() : new
ActiveXObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP.3.0");

if (!request)

  alert("Error initializing XMLHttpRequest!");

            

var url = "http://www.connotea.org/data/noop";;

            

request.open("GET", url, true); --------------------------fails here

request.setRequestHeader("Authorization",
"Basic"+btoa(login+":"+password));

request.onreadystatechange = handleResponse;

request.send(null);

 

handle Response is this,

 

if (request.readyState == 4)

       if (request.status == 200)

         alert("Server is done!");

       else if (request.status == 404)

         alert("Request URL does not exist");

       else

         alert("Error: status code is " + request.status); 

 

 

Now it seems like request.open only works on files on the localhost. If
that's true connotea will always return a 'permission denied to call
open()'.

 

Is there a way around this? The goal is to do any authentication/
response handling in the background w/o showing any of the ugly response
headers.

 

I expect to run into a similar issue on trying to do a post request
using HttpRequest.

 

Can someone help please.
