No. JSONP provides a way to pass the JSON response directly to a callback function without the need for eval(), independent of what you're doing with it. It was conceived to allow cross-domain use of JSON, 'cause you don't get the response from XHR but from an appended <script> tag. Think of it like this:
// in your .JS file <script> function shake(data){ alert( data.stuff ); }; </script> // now you call www.jsonp.com/get?format=json&callback=shake, and you get this string back: shake({ stuff: [1,2,3] }); What happens here, is that there is *no* ajax involved. It all happens as if you simply put this into your document: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.jsonp.com/get? format=json&callback=shake"></script> The response text is a new script that contains the data in the function (which must be defined before that) call. Well, this is already far off from your question, it depends on what's running server-side etc. Maybe if you could mention which plugin you're using or provide a test page this could be solved easily. cheers -- ricardo On Jul 1, 4:12 pm, Rick Faircloth <r...@whitestonemedia.com> wrote: > So...am I to understand that jsonp provides a method by which an image can > be uploaded after submission of a form as part of a callback function?
