How to execute the web scrpt from HTML File

[creddy2001]

I created web script (JS, Description and Reponse template) in alfresco. If i specify the URL of the webscript in the browser (http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/events/get), i am getting the proper response.

My question is how we can execute the web script from static html page and inject the response back in to the same static HTML (DOM) . Because my static html has different secitons. The response of the webscript is only a part of my HTML page.

Please help me out in resolving this issue. Its very urgent.

Thanks
Chandra

Make an ajax request. Here's part of what you should do (using the YUI ajax library):

<script type="text/javascript">
   window.onload = function() {
      var url = 'http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/events/get';
      YAHOO.util.Connect.asyncRequest('GET', url,{ 
         success: function(o) {      
            document.getElementById('eventlist').innerHTML=o.responseText;   
         }
      });
   }
</script>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

In this case i am getting the following script error.

Security Error: Content at http://admin.recoverywebsite.www--sandbox.127-0-0-1.ip.alfrescodemo.net:8180/ may not load data from http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/events/get.


How to resolve this issue.


Thanks

ajax can't make calls to a different domain. localhost != recoverywebsite 
You're going to have to change how your virt server is named.

I have come across the same problem and have got around it using window.name transport.
Instead of using YUI I have used dojo to implement the execution of my web script.
Not sure if this is the best approach but it worked for me and I achieved results.
Below is the link to the tutorial I followed.
