Cross domain request headaches. The browser allows the cross domain request but phonegap on the device kills it. I've been there and it took some work getting used to dealing with it. Try using jquery and jsonp in an ajax get request.
Try adding <access origin="*" /> to your config.xml for testing.
Here's an example of an jquery ajax request taken from working code.
$.ajax({
timeout: 5000,
url: 'https://yourdomain.com/yourfile.php',
dataType: "jsonp",
jsonpCallback: 'yourcallbackfunction',
type: "GET",
crossDomain: true,
data: {'somedata':'your data string'},
error: function(xhrObj,text,errorObj){
if(xhrObj.status !== 200) {
var errorTxt='Error Log: ';
errorTxt=errorTxt+"Error code specific:'"+xhrObj.status+"'
";
errorTxt=errorTxt+"Error status specific:'"+xhrObj.statusText+"'
";
errorTxt=errorTxt+"Error code general:'"+text+"'
";
errorTxt=errorTxt+"Error status general:'"+errorObj.message+"'
";
console.log(errorTxt);
}
}
});
function yourcallbackfunction(data) {
// do cool stuff here
console.log(data);
}
Be sure to handle the headers on your servers response so that the response gets back to your client. Here's a sample processing function I used to return data. Sorry if php isn't your server side scripting language but hopefully you'll get the idea.
`function SendResults($data) {
// Allow from any origin
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN'])) {
header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: {$_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN']}");
header('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true');
header('Access-Control-Max-Age: 86400'); // cache for 1 day
}
// Access-Control headers are received during OPTIONS requests
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'OPTIONS') {
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCESS_CONTROL_REQUEST_METHOD']))
header("Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS");
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCESS_CONTROL_REQUEST_HEADERS']))
header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers: {$_SERVER['HTTP_ACCESS_CONTROL_REQUEST_HEADERS']}");
}
header("content-type: application/json");
$callback = filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'callback', FILTER_SANITIZE_SPECIAL_CHARS);
echo "$callback(" . json_encode($data) . ")";
}`
Good luck.. Hope this helps you.
