Form post to different domain?

R

rdcpro

Without resorting to fully trusted forms, can I load a form template from
say, Sharepoint at http://foo.org/ and post the filled out form to a web
service at http://bar.org/ without running into cross-domain data access?
There seem to be lots of Infopath articles and such that imply this is a
standard approach.

I would prefer my web service be on my appserver, while my forms be
published to my intranet portal, residing in a separate machine in my
intranet.

I realize that we could make both sites "trusted" in our intranet zone, but
I just want to know if it's even necessary.

Thanks in advance,
Mike

The restriction to cross-domain data access is controlled in IE. Go into the
advanced settings on each user's machine (or apply by GPO) and set the custom
security to always allow cross-domain data access. I do this for example
because my forms are hosted on one domain while my web services are hosted on
another.
