I spent quite a bit of time farting around with this problem and thing I figured out what I was doing wrong. If someone can confirm I'm on the write track I'd appreciate it.
I read somewhere that the format of the passed url which indicates that .getJSON should handle the call as a x-browser call is "url? queryparams&callback=?". Is that right? If that is the format of the call then I'm assuming the .getJSON method will create a <script> in the DOM. If that's right where is the <script> tag created? In the <head> tag? Also, if the url doesn't have that callback=? in it then is a straight XMLHTTPRequest called to the server? Thanks, any clarification on the above would be greatly appreciated.
