jQuery XML REST Access-Control-Allow-Origin

Question

I am calling Version One REST API and keep getting XMLHttpRequest cannot load https://www10.v1host.com/... Origin http://localhost:8080 is not allowed by Access-Contro

Answer 1

i know it's an old question but i think there is an better answer, via jQuery documentation:

dataType

multiple, space-separated values: As of jQuery 1.5, jQuery can convert a dataType from what it received in the Content-Type header to what you require. For example, if you want a text response to be treated as XML, use "text xml" for the dataType. You can also make a JSONP request, have it received as text, and interpreted by jQuery as XML: "jsonp text xml." Similarly, a shorthand string such as "jsonp xml" will first attempt to convert from jsonp to xml, and, failing that, convert from jsonp to text, and then from text to xml.
