Perform curl request in javascript?

Question

Is it possible to send a curl request in jQuery or javascript?

Something like this:

curl \\
-H \'Authorization: Bearer 6Q************\' \\
\'https:/

Yes, use getJSONP. It's the only way to make cross domain/server async calls. (*Or it will be in the near future). Something like

$.getJSON('your-api-url/validate.php?'+$(this).serialize+'callback=?', function(data){
if(data)console.log(data);
});

The callback parameter will be filled in automatically by the browser, so don't worry.

On the server side ('validate.php') you would have something like this

'failed'));
