Hi Jay, from what I understand cross domain javascript security only comes into play when the javascript and the html that references it come from different domains (i.e. different hostnames and/or subnets). Unless I'm mistaken I don't think what's been proposed in this thread would be affected by cross domain security since the webapps and the Dojo files would be hosted on the same server, albeit under different contexts.
Thanks for offering to help test this out. I'll send you a WAR file containing the Dojo files in a separate email. You should be able to deploy the WAR into Geronimo, remove Dojo from your webapp, and then point your webapp's html at "/dojo/dojo.js". Best wishes, Paul On 8/14/06, Jay D.

Hello all, The application that I am currently developing under Geronimo is using Dojo (mostly for it's asynchronous HTTP support). Because it is a javascript library, there are limitations that come up if you ever try to cross domains in your URLs. Those limitations are basically that you cannot use javascript to access a different domain that the one the javascript was called from (at least that is how I currently understand it). They did that to prevent cross-site scripting abuse. But, I do have everything that I need working right now. So I would be more that happy to do testing for pulling the Dojo library out of my war files and referencing a single shared library (as long as you use version 0.3.1 or higher - the current version).
