web service call not reached from javascript.

[xren]

Hi,

I have a web service backed by the integration service, which worked fine when I test it from the designer. However, it seems not working when I call it from javascript from a form.
It seems not triggered.

What the reason could be?

Thanks,
Xiaoli

I think it might be the same origin policy thing. But I could not figure out how to fix it now. I met this before and fixed it that time without detail log of the solution.

Xiaoli,

We get around this problem by getting the server to call the web service, not the client. This is done using executeFunction() in the client API that was introduced with Ebase V4.5. The client passes data to the server with executeFunction() which runs a script to call the web service, then returns the response to the client. We have used this successfully a few times.

I think there is an example of this in the samples folder "Writing and Calling Web Services" http://forum.ebasetech.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=513.

Regards
Jon
