Can anyone point to a page with a more coincise example?

The example for provider should read:

var socket = new easyXDM.Socket({

onMessage:function(message, origin) {

// not here

}

});

// here
socket.postMessage(‘hello world’);

This is one of the most confusing things I’ve ever read, everything from downloading this code to implementing it. Coming from a javascript expert. We need to include the easyXDM.js file on both the parent and the host?
Yet the easyXDM does a ‘document.write’ of like 10 scripts. Having that on all the cross domain hosts is unpleasant at best.

You’re telling me Twitter sends messages cross domain using their twitter button by including these 10 scripts? I find that hard to believe.

do you know if it slows things down if you have it specified even on browsers that are not I.E?

What is … in your example, please:

var socket = new easyXDM.Socket({
…,
onMessage: function(message, origin){
alert(message);
}
});

Could use work but these examples are functional. That’s good enough for me. Up and running in an hour or so for my proj!

Totally agree.

Anyone else think the referenced example is terrible? It just links you to a webpage that happens to use easyXDM. There are no pointers to the code that was implemented. The reader is left to slog through the page source to figure it out. How about just listing the relevant code on the page???

For the IE6/7 browsers messaging is implemented using FlashTransport. This is why you need to specify where the easyxdm.swf file is.

I don’t quite understand why setting
swf: “../easyxdm.swf”.
Anyone can tell me why?
