Retrieving data from remote form

[JuiceBox]

Hello,

 

is it possible to retrieve data from remote form, from another domain that I can't control.

I want to type in number in my local form text field and then post it to remote form and retrieve data. I know how to retrieve data from local mysql, but don't know how to retrieve it from remote form.

 

Remote form: http://www.otto.de/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/Otto-OttoDe-Site/de_DE/-/EUR/PV_DirectOrder-Start?ls=0#lmPromo=la,3,hk,home,fl,Sidebar_Bestellen

 

Working number: 31477682

 

I want to type in 31477682 on my local text field and retrieve data(price, color, status like "lieferbar") from another domain.

The example you provided uses AJAX to request the content, which unfortunately you can't cross-domain (right now at least). There are a number of alternatives you could look into though.

I found those alternatives, but no one seems to be working for me. I don't have so much experience with AJAX.

I set up my local form here:

 

http://www.tsa.lt/betatest/ , but still no results.

 

What I found so far is that it is using this script in directform.js :

 

getArtInfoByAjax : function (artNo, amount, size, artInfoId, performAvailabiltyCheck){

 

$('#divArtLoading'+ artInfoId).removeClass(directOrder.CLASS_HIDDEN);

$('#divAlternativeArticleLayer'+ artInfoId).addClass(directOrder.CLASS_HIDDEN);

 

$('#divSpWheel'+ artInfoId).show();

 

$.ajax({

url: "http://" + window.location.host + "/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/Otto-OttoDe-Site/de_DE/-/EUR/PV_DirectOrder-GetArticleInformation",

async: true,

data: {

artInfoId : artInfoId,

artInfoRunningNumber : $('#divArtRunningNo'+ artInfoId).html(),

amount : amount,

articleNumber : artNo,

size : size

},

success: function(response){

 

var artInfo = $('#divArtInfo' + artInfoId);

 

artInfo.find('#divArtLoading'+ artInfoId).addClass(directOrder.CLASS_HIDDEN);

artInfo.html(response);

 

if (performAvailabiltyCheck){

directOrder.selectFirstAvailableArticle(artInfoId, artInfo);

}

else{

// no availability check neccessary, because it is already done in context

// of the AKI-Layer.

// So, we only determine the desired size and display it.

var selectBox = $("#sbTxtSize" + artInfoId);

selectBox.selectedIndex = directOrder.getIndexOfSelectBoxValue("sbTxtSize" + artInfoId, size);

if(selectBox.selectedIndex != directOrder.SELECT_BOX_VALUE_NOT_FOUND){

selectBox.val(size);

var jsonHiddenArtInfo = window.document['hiddenArtInfo'+ artInfoId];

directOrder.changeVariationInfo(selectBox, jsonHiddenArtInfo, artInfoId)

}

else{

// we did not find the value in the selectbox, so select

// the first available variation.

directOrder.selectFirstAvailableArticle(artInfoId, artInfo);

}

}

 

// article exists

if (window.document['hiddenArtInfo'+ artInfoId].data != null){

artInfo.find('#txtAmount'+ artInfoId).select().focus();

directOrder.checkAlternativesExistForNonAvailableArticles(artInfo, artInfoId);

}

// article does not exist

else{

artInfo.find('#txtArtNo'+ artInfoId).select();

}

artInfo.find('#divArtInfoLoeschen' + artInfoId).removeClass(directOrder.CLASS_HIDDEN);

 

directOrder.processEvent('event', artInfoId, directOrder.SRC_NONE, directOrder.FLG_NONE);

 

},

        error: function () {

directOrder.resetHiddenArtInfo(artInfoId);

var artInfo = $('#divArtInfo' + artInfoId);

artInfo.find('#divArtLoading'+ artInfoId).addClass(directOrder.CLASS_HIDDEN);

//artInfo.empty();

directOrder.resetArtInfo(artInfoId,artInfo);

var artInfoConfig = directOrder.createArtInfoConfiguration();

artInfoConfig.showMsgFrame = true;

artInfoConfig.clsMsgFrame = 'frame_err';

artInfoConfig.clsMsgAnyProblem = 'txt_err';

artInfoConfig.msgAnyProblem = window.document['hiddenDOMessages'].dbsTechnicalError;

directOrder.refineArtInfo(artInfoId, artInfo, artInfoConfig, true);

}

 

});

 

Tried this method: http://www.johnhamelink.com/2010/07/combat-crossdomain-post-problems-ajax/  but still no luck.

Ok, I finally solved it
