Thanks for your response, tsmiller.
Okay, I guess I had that wrong in the code. Not sure why there are
two flavors of Request methods, but I'll stick to qx.io.remote.Request
for now.
But unfortunately, it still doesn't work. I added a event handler for
the 'failed', 'aborted', and 'timeout' events, and sure enough, it
timed out. I'm not really sure why. Here is the request code now:
var req = new
qx.io.remote.Request("http://localhost:4242/getfeeds";, "GET",
"text/plain");
req.setCrossDomain(true);
req.addListener("completed", function(e) {
composite.add(new qx.ui.basic.Label("getfeeds request
completed"));
alert(e.getContent());
});
req.addListener("receiving", function(e) {
composite.add(new qx.ui.basic.Label("getfeeds request
getting data"));
});
req.addListener("aborted", function(e) {
composite.add(new qx.ui.basic.Label("getfeeds request
aborted"));
});
req.addListener("timeout", function(e) {
composite.add(new qx.ui.basic.Label("getfeeds request
timed out"));
});
req.addListener("failed", function(e) {
composite.add(new qx.ui.basic.Label("getfeeds request
had an error"));
});
req.send();
I had set cross domain, because I'm working from the filesystem, and I
guess 'localhost' counts as a different domain.
So I get the timeout result, and I never even got the 'receiving'
event. why would that be? The server does send data.

PS Here's a basic telnet session so you can see what the server is doing:
$ telnet localhost 4242
Trying ::1...
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET /getfeeds HTTP/1.1
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
