You can use JSONP (JSON with Padding, JSON with Callback or whatever it's called these days) to work around the Same Origin Policy if you want to access data from another domain. See: http://docs.jquery.com/Ajax/jQuery.getJSON There's an example on how to use api.flickr.com. jQuery will handle the padding automatically for you. You only have to make sure that your script returns JSONP, eg. callback(<JSON data>); where "callback" is a string specified in the URL and <JSON data> is just, well, JSON data. Rafał Pocztarski
