Abstract

In this chapter, we’ll explore what you can do with two of the important building blocks for real-time, cross-origin communication: Cross Document Messaging and XMLHttpRequest Level 2 and we’ll show you how they can be used to create compelling applications. Both of these building blocks add new communication options to HTML5 applications and allow applications served from different domains to safely communicate with each other.
