Class TimeMap.loaders.jsonp

Extends:: TimeMap.loaders.remote
Defined in:: json.js

JSONP loader - expects a service that takes a callback function name as the last URL parameter.

The jsonp loader assumes that the JSON can be loaded from a url with a "?" instead of the callback function name, e.g. "http://www.test.com/getsomejson.php?callback=?". See the jQuery.ajax documentation for more details on how to format the url, especially if the parameter is not called "callback". This works for services like Google Spreadsheets, etc., and accepts remote URLs.


TimeMap.init({
    datasets: [
        {

            type: "jsonp",
            options: {
                url: "http://www.example.com/getsomejson.php?callback=?"
            }
        }
    ],
    // etc...
