[xmljs-users] XmlHttpRequest Object

[Heath B. <hea...@gm...>]

I'm trying to use the XmlHttpRequest Object to make requests back to
my web server to retrieve some Xml data.  The request object itself
works fine and the request comes back just fine.  However, every time
I make the request, my browser prompts my about using an ActiveX
control that is safe for scripting.  The example websites I've viewed
that use the XmlHttpRequest Object call it the same way I do, and I
don't get this warning when I view those pages.

Here is a link to an example page:

http://developer.apple.com/internet/webcontent/XMLHttpRequestExample/example.html

Here is my function that actually calls the XmlHttpRequest Object:
function loadXMLDoc(url) {
    // branch for native XMLHttpRequest object
    if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
        req = new XMLHttpRequest();
        req.onreadystatechange = processReqChange;
        req.open("GET", url, true);
        req.send(null);
    // branch for IE/Windows ActiveX version
    } else if (window.ActiveXObject) {
        req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
        if (req) {
            req.onreadystatechange = processReqChange;
            req.open("GET", url, true);
            req.send();
        }
    }
}

From a quick inspection, that looks like it should work OK. XML for <SCRIPT> doesn't use
XMLHttpRequest so beyond that, I'm at a loss :)

Re: [xmljs-users] XmlHttpRequest Object

I figured out what it was.

IE throws the ActiveX warning if you call the XmlHttpRequest object
from a page served from your localhost.

Since, I was running my webserver on the same computer, it was giving
me the warning.

When I ran it from an external computer, it was fine.

Thanks.
