How to read json from remote in javascript

Question

I have tried to read a json from remote server, then i got this error.

"Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource"

Then i read that i need to set the datatype to jsonp.

  dataType: 'jsonp',

The problem is the json that i am getting isn't in jsonp format, which is required by jsonp. If i don't use jsonp i get the above error message.

How can I resolve this?

if the server offers no jsonp, and no cors headers, you need a server side (your server) solution — Jaromanda X, Feb 10 '16 at 04:51

in that case, the only option is to contact the owner of the remote site and get them to support either `jsonp` or add CORS headers for you — Jaromanda X, Feb 10 '16 at 05:08

You have to enable a CORS request on the server side as well.

Add this line to your code: response.addHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");

You can replace * with your site's url if you want to allow only for particular domain.
