Hello, I am trying to understand better how to use the gadget metadata service. I want to invoke the metadata service from my container page in order to fetch the user preference metadata and the gadget default title. Looking at sample-metadata.html and RpcServlet.java, it appears that the only way to request metadata is via an XHR post. This means the request needs to originate from the same domain the gadget server is on.
Unfortunately, my container page is on a different domain than my gadget server. Can anyone provide me some guidance as to how to do what I want to do? Invoking the metadata service from within the gadget iframe doesn't make a lot of sense from a lot of different perspectives. Invoking it from the container is currently impossible when the container and gadget server are on different domains. Am I thinking about this the right way? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Erin
