Experiences with jsonp in Editor?

kwssaat

Hi folks,
the following datatables example with jsonp support is working fine: https://datatables.net/examples/server_side/jsonp.html However when I try to implement editor with REST services via jsonp I can't get it to work. How should I configure my editor. Only add a dataType attribute to the ajax part? Or do I need to specify a success function as well?

Thanks in advance,
Christoph

Hi Christoph,

Are you using the Editor PHP libraries? If so, you will need to do something like:

echo $_GET['callback'].'('.json_encode(
    $editor->data()
).');';

Also set the dataType option for the ajax object. And finally remember that JSONP only works with GET.

Hi Allan,
the last point was the right one. Restricted JSONP to Get only so everything was fine. Gonna try out CORS later on.

Thank you, Christoph.
