I tested my app on OS6 and OS7 devices, both worked well. But a few days ago, I faced an issue on OS5 devices. All Ajax requests didn't work. After some googling, I found out that in OS5, ajax is disabled. It is so weird, My app must work on OS5 devices but I can't make Ajax call.

To fix this issue, I searched about old cross-domain methods and found 'dynamic scripting' and 'IFrame' methods. Here is an article describes them :

http://www.openjs.com/articles/ajax/transfer_methods_xmlhttprequest_alternatives.php

But I have no example about non xmlHttpRequest or non ActiveX methods. Is there anybody who has a working example about these methods. I have a jsp file on the server that sends me a xml response.

a working example will make me so grateful.

Thanks in advance.

[EDIT]

I decided to use IFrame to cross-side communication, but unable to get content of iFrame, my code is like that :

function onIFrameLoad(i) {
    var response;
    if(i.contentDocument){
        response = i.contentDocument; // For NS6
    }else if(i.contentWindow){
        response = i.contentWindow.document; // For IE5.5 and IE6
    }
    var parser = new PListParser();
    var result = parser.parsePList(response);   
    ....
}

and 

<iframe id="iFrame" onload="onIFrameLoad(this);" src="[a url]"></iframe>

this works well in Ripple Emulator but doesn't work on real device(os5).

Do you have access to the server where you are fetching the data? If you do, maybe you could configure it to fetch the data as a JSONP.
