Will jQuery .load() Work On PhoneGap?

I know that the jQuery .load() function has a "problem": You can't re开发者_开发百科trieve pages that are outside of the current domain, because of the Same Origin Policy, but I remember when I was developing another program that I could do cross-domain AJAX without problems while on an PhoneGap compiled environment, but will it work while on PhoneGap(like normal AJAX) or it will just fail because of the policy?

You can use .load() or $.ajax() in PhoneGap applications. Most of my experience is with getting information from the same domain under which the app. is packaged. For example:

App. package identifier:

com.my-domain.my-app

Website domain for ajax calls:

www.my-domain.com

I just did a simple test in an iPhone emulator (via Xcode) and I was able to get the contents of a personal web domain as well as http://www.google.com/. Test was as follows:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $.get('http://www.google.com/', function (data) {
        alert(data);
    });
});

I tried doing this, testing on the ipad simulator and it didnt work for me, I kept getting cross-domain ajax errors (i.e. permission errors).

I eventually found that I needed to Navigate to [projectName] -> Support Files -> phonegap.plist Under External Hosts add a new string with the value * Or add your exact domain
