XML Files - Posted By Michael (wrighty) on 20th Jan 08 at 3:00am
I'm trying to handle an XML file from another site/domain.

However in FF I get an error:

Quote:
Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to call method XMLDocument.load


So what am I doing wrong? I'm not doing anything different from when I used a local XML file (PM one) .... {Unsure}

Aren't we allowed to request an XML file from another site?

Sounds to me as though the chmod on the XML directory needs to be set to 755. {Wink}

it's not an XML file on this forum... so I'll have to contact the other domain! {Smile}

Ohh, you mean you're trying to access an XML file from another server on your forum?

yaya

Unless if this is a block on VF's side, go to the file on your server, and set the chmod permissions to 755.

Let me know if that works. {Smile}

Ahh, well then all you can really do is contact the owner of said server. {Unsure}

Last I heard that would violate the cross-domain policy.

Unless the host sets up a crossdomain.xml file to allow access from certain domains
