[OpenLayers-Users] GetFeatureInfo... Access denied..

[JuKiM]

Hi all,

Finally I've decided to modify the openlayers call.
Now I make the XmlHttpRequest.open against the same domain (The IIS served
application), and there I redirect the call to geoserver, and then return
the result to the client..

I've modifyed the OpenLayers.js doing this:

 sUrl = "test.aspx?param=" + escape(sUrl); //Force the call to same domain
 this._object.open(sMethod, sUrl, bAsync, sUser, sPassword);

And I've created a new page called test hosted in IIS, that catch the
request:
If Request.QueryString.Count <> 0 Then
            Dim wsResponse As XmlDocument = New XmlDocument()
            Dim param As String
            param = Request.QueryString("param") 'In the param we have the
GeoServer URL
            Dim url As String = param
            wsResponse.Load(url)
            Dim XMLDocument As String = wsResponse.InnerXml
            Response.Clear()
            Response.ContentType = "text/xml"
            Response.Write(XMLDocument) 'We return the result from GeoServer
        End If

And doing that, I can do the XMLHttpRequest and get the response from
GeoServer..

Any advice/problem with doing in that way?

Thanks!
