How do I send a cross-domain POST request via JavaScript?
Notes - it shouldn\'t refresh the page, and I need to grab and parse the response afterwards.
Create two hidden iframes (add "display: none;" to the css style). Make your second iframe point to something on your own domain.
Create a hidden form, set its method to "post" with target = your first iframe, and optionally set enctype to "multipart/form-data" (I'm thinking you want to do POST because you want to send multipart data like pictures?)
When ready, make the form submit() the POST.
If you can get the other domain to return javascript that will do Cross-Domain Communication With Iframes (http://softwareas.com/cross-domain-communication-with-iframes) then you are in luck, and you can capture the response as well.
Of course, if you want to use your server as a proxy, you can avoid all this. Simply submit the form to your own server, which will proxy the request to the other server (assuming the other server isn't set up to notice IP discrepancies), get the response, and return whatever you like.
