Hello. Thank you very much for your detailed replay. You did clear my point - its the first option you wrote: HTML page from server1 to client and this HTML page makes XMLHTTPRequest to server2. As far as I know the HTML page can only "connect" to its origin server which is server1. So, how can it be done? Thank you. awarnier wrote: > > ampo wrote: >> Hello. >> >> My scenario is client "calling" server1 and server1 is "calling", by >> xmlHTTPRequest, to server2. >> server2 has to return xml data to server1 and to the client. >> my general broblem is cross-domain, as server1 and server2 are not in the >> same domain. >> >> Could you, please, clear this for me: >> Is APACHE, configured on server1, as proxy is operating as the client >> calling server1, or its action is when server1 is requesting server2? >> What I need is the second option. >> >> Currently, I have HTML page on server1 and ASP on server2. any other >> files >> options? >> > Amir, > > something tells me that you might be confused as to what is happening. > Or else your explanation above is even more confusing than it looks. > > I may be wrong, but "xmlHTTPrequest" is a term (or a technique) usually > linked to Ajax.
