How to configure Alfresco 4.0.e allowing callback for json

Hi everybody, this is my first post here…I would like to provide (in Alfresco 4.0.e) the mechanism which wraps the JSON output text in parentheses and a function name (the callback). A callback is invoked by adding the following URL parameter on JSON URL requests:alf_callback=functionwhere function

Hi,
your application must pass a valid ticket when you call a webscript, unless you have a SSO mechanism that sets a cookie for Alfresco.
Namely, you can add to your url the fragment alf_ticket=<TICKET_hex_sequence>
This sequence can be obtained using this Alfresco webscript username>&pw=<password>'>http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/api/login?u=<username>&pw=<password>
Conversely if you get a basic authentication dialog and provide correct login/pwd for a existing user this will be kept while your session is valid and asked no more.

Hope this helps

P.S.: but why do you need JSON callbacks? This could lead to many security issues…
