Cross Domain Get Request in JS/JQuery

Question

Is there a way without using a server proxy to perform a cross domain GET or POST request?

Answer 1

Using YQL is an easy way of doing cross domain ajax. You can specify to have a JSON or XML object returned. IBM has a good tutorial: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/web/library/wa-aj-jsonp2/index.html

Though just search for yql cross domain and it'll bring up numerous tutorials.
