ScriptTagProxy.js

/**
 * @class Ext.data.ScriptTagProxy
 * An implementation of Ext.data.DataProxy that reads a data object from a URL which may be in a domain
 * other than the originating domain of the running page.<br><br>
 * <p>
 * <em>Note that if you are retrieving data from a page that is in a domain that is NOT the same as the originating domain
 * of the running page, you must use this class, rather than DataProxy.</em><br><br>
 * <p>
 * The content passed back from a server resource requested by a ScriptTagProxy is executable JavaScript
 * source code that is used as the source inside a &lt;script> tag.<br><br>
 * <p>
 * In order for the browser to process the returned data, the server must wrap the data object
 * with a call to a callback function, the name of which is passed as a parameter by the ScriptTagProxy.
 * Below is a Java example for a servlet which returns data for either a ScriptTagProxy, or an HttpProxy
 * depending on whether the callback name was passed:
 * <p>
 * <pre><code>
boolean scriptTag = false;
String cb = request.getParameter("callback");
if (cb != null) {
    scriptTag = true;
    response.setContentType("text/javascript");
} else {
    response.setContentType("application/x-json");
}
Writer out = response.getWriter();
if (scriptTag) {
    out.write(cb + "(");
}
out.print(dataBlock.toJsonString());
if (scriptTag) {
    out.write(");");
}
</pre></code>
 *
 * @constructor
 * @param {Object} config A configuration object.
