I am trying to create a facebook application, all is working fine except the ajax part that I am using to populate a second box from the item selected in first select box.

I am using jquery (v1.3.2) for accomplishing this. This ajax is working absolutely fine on the host where I have taken space for it, but it is not working in facebook.

Here are my questions regarding to this problem,

  • does canvas page url needs to be same as that of my application name. ( in my case it is different)

I am getting this error on the onchange event of parent select box inside facebook.

Access to restricted URI denied” code: “1012

  • what might be wrong…? Please help me solve this problem.

Thanks

    You are not allowed to request data from other sites than the domain the script is running on. For example, if you are running the script http://www.example.com/script.js, then you can only ajax files under the http://www.exaple.com domain, not http://www.facebook.com.

    There are a few ways to do it:

    • JSONp is a way, but it requires that
      facebook replies with jsonp data. Not
      sure if it does. More info on JSONp here.
    • CSSHttpRequest (or AJACSS) is another way. Seriously doubt facbook uses this method.
