So I need to send a request to this site with parameters:

http://localhost:8983/solr/collecion2/update/json?commit=true -d'{'Link': 'http:www.bla.ee'}' -H 'Content-type:application/json'

From this site:

http://localhost:9000/

What would be the easiest/smartest/doable way to achieve this in Jquery/Javascript/Some other framework?

Hey.

I am not aware of any decent way to send POST requests across domains. Not a well supported one, at least. You could look into using the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header, but support for that isn't great yet. At least not if you want to support older browsers, like IE7. - The Wikipedia article on the subject explains the basics pretty well: Cross-origin resource sharing.

If you can incorporate the POST data into the query string, that would simplify matters. <iframe> and <script> elements can be used to send requests to other domains in a pretty consistent manner, so that would be relatively easy.

Why can't you use Ajax to do this?

Security reasons. The browsers don't allow AJAX requests to 3rd party domains, only the domain from which the main page was requests.

That is, unless you use the Access-Control header I mentioned before, in a browser that supports it.

Atli Thank you, I didn't know this.
