RESTful API url calling from a different domain

Question

I have the following restful api ajax call:

   $.ajax({
                    type: "POST",

                    url: "https://website.com/a/login",

                    data: data,

                    dataType: "json"

                })....

where data is:

data["login"]="username";
data["pass"]="1234";

the problem is that this code only works when run from my domain. But when I put this code to run externally, for example from jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ or from phonegap. This no longer works, and returns me with nothing.

How would I remedy this?

This would work on PhoneGap but you would need to add your domain to whitelist. http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.9.0/guide_whitelist_index.md.html
