Unable to call an ADF application Web Service from Javascript
999569Apr 11 2013 — edited Apr 12 2013Hi!
There is an adf application that includes a servlet used to receive web service calls. If I type its URL in the browser, I receive the JSON response that I'm expected to receive.
But I need to call it problematically, so I use a simple jQuery $.ajax() code to achieve this. When I load this into the browser, I get a response that is not a JSON, but it's a html, always the same as this one:
(note that I use JSONP, as it's a cross domain request)

/**
* This is the loopback script to process the url before the real page loads. It introduces
* a separate round trip. During this first roundtrip, we currently do two things:
* - check the url hash portion, this is for the PPR Navigation.
* - do the new window detection
* the above two are both controled by parameters in web.xml
*
* Since it's very lightweight, so the network latency is the only impact.
*
* here are the list of will-pass-in parameters (these will replace the param in this whole
* pattern:
* viewIdLength view Id length (characters),
* loopbackIdParam loopback Id param name,
* loopbackId loopback Id,
* loopbackIdParamMatchExpr loopback Id match expression,
* windowModeIdParam window mode param name,
* windowModeParamMatchExpr window mode match expression,
* clientWindowIdParam client window Id param name,
* clientWindowIdParamMatchExpr client window Id match expression,
* windowId window Id,
* initPageLaunch initPageLaunch,
* enableNewWindowDetect whether we want to enable new window detection
* jsessionId session Id that needs to be appended to the redirect URL
* enablePPRNav whether we want to enable PPR Navigation

Ignore the last line of the code, it's Romanian, it's the message you get if there is no JS enabled in your browser.
What could be the problem? I was expecting the same JSON response, as the one in the browser.
