Hi,
I have to write a script which will be hosted on differents domains. This script has to get information from my server.
So, stackoverflow's user told me that i have to use JSON-P format, which, after research, is what i'm going to do. (the data provided in JSON-P is for displaying some information hosted on my server on other website)
How do I output JSON-P from my server ? Is it the same as the json_encode function from PHP
How do i design the tree pattern for the output JSON-P
(you know, like : ({"name" : "foo", "id" : "xxxxx", "blog" : "http://xxxxxx.com"});
can I steal this from my XML output ? (http://bit.ly/9kzBDP)
Each time a visitor browse a website on which my widget is it'll make a request on my server, requesting the JSON-P data to display on the client side.
It'll increase dramatically the CPU load (1 visitor on the website who will have the script = 1 SQL request on my server to output data), so is there any way to 'caching' the JSON-P information output to refresh it only one or twice a day and stores it into a 'file' (in which extension?).
BUT on the other hand i would say that requesting the JSON-P data directly (without caching it) is a plus, because, websites which will integrates the script only want to display THEIR information and not the whole data. So, making a script with something like that:
jQuery.getJSON("http://www.something.com/json-p/outpout?filter=5&callback=?", function(data) {
................);
});
Where filter= the information the website wants to display
What do you think ?
Thank you very much
;)
