[OpenLayers-Users] OpenLayers app on another site

[Sergeant_york]

These are theories, haven't tryed yet:

1- Your openlayers application will be in a view (most likely a web page)
2- There will be another application in another domain
3- Another webpage(application) will want to access your webpage to embed
your application in itself
(here cross domain issue happens)
4- so it will be like
---------------------------------------------
l Another web page (www.otherapp.com)
l  ------------------------------------
l  l         Your openlayers app
l  l            (www.yourapp.com
l  -------------------------------------
l
---------------------------------------------

As a solution I can suggest 2 ways:

1- Your domain can accept another application's domain to request and serve
its application view:
a- you will have a view
b- you will allow cross domain to other domain:
   http://enable-cors.org/server.html
c- other domain will embed your view into its own view

2- Your domain will not accept cross domain requests but other website will
bring your application view through its own server
a- other application requests view from its own domain (mapPage for example)
b- other application's controller requests your openlayers application in
serverside
(or apache modproxy?)
c- controller serves embedded view to client
d- client embeds that view into its own view

Hope that helps
