Right, so did I. See http://www.w3.org/TR/cors/
The Access-Control-Allow-Origin header indicates whether a resource can be
shared based by returning the value of the Origin request header in the
response. ABNF:
Access-Control-Allow-Origin = "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" ":"
origin-list-or-null | "*"
This is a header that the server adds on the way back to the page that
says, "ignore cross-domain issues." RCSB, NCI, and NCBI (almost) have it in
place. So now you can do this in a web page:
jQuery.ajax({
dataType: "text",
type: "GET",
url: fileName,
success: fSuccess
})
and your fSuccess function will get the model data as the first parameter.
