Hi Peter,<br><br>Have you seen: <a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/openlayers/wiki/FrequentlyAskedQuestions#ProxyHost">http://trac.osgeo.org/openlayers/wiki/FrequentlyAskedQuestions#ProxyHost</a> ?<br><br>It's been a while since I had need to set up a ProxyHost but I think that OpenLayers appends the complete URL that it is looking to request data from to the URL specified as the ProxyHost.<br>
<br>Hope that helps,<br><br>Matt.<br>-- <br>Matt Walker<br>@_walkermatt<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 15 March 2011 13:05, Peter Cotroneo <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:Peter.Cotroneo@ordnancesurvey.co.uk">Peter.Cotroneo@ordnancesurvey.co.uk</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I’m running into a cross-site scripting issue with
OpenLayers.loadURL, and I’m not sure how to use OpenLayers.ProxyHost.
I can’t seem to find any documentation that says where to specify this
parameter (in JavaScript code, a config file, etc.).</span></font></p>
