Do the answers get any more helpful if you buy the product?

Does anyone else understand what I am asking?

Has anyone implemented jqwidgets cross domain without JSONP ?

Has anyone adapted jquery/jqwidgets to use the OPTIONS protocol instead?

Thank you for your reply.

It does seem that jqwidgets has been abandoned by the yii2 community.

There was a lot of useful stuff for 1.0, but nobody has taken up the torch for yii2.

In case anyone else is trying to evaluate yii2 and jqwidgets with JSONP, I found one way to get going was to override ActiveDataProvider::getModels

public function getModels()
{
    $this->prepare();
    return ['data' => parent::getModels(), 'callback' => $_REQUEST['callback'] ];
}

I notice others are returning similar, but directly from a rest controller rather than the data provider.

Thank you for your reply.

Please let me try to make the question simpler.

Is it possible to use jqwidgets for cross-domain calls without JSONP?

I am asking because my server-side is already coded for ajax calls with the pre-flight OPTIONS and credentials

(eg http://techblog.constantcontact.com/software-development/using-cors-for-cross-domain-ajax-requests/ )

If I must switch to JSONP, I must also write and debug extra code to do what is already working and tested.

Not a jquery guy here, but their docs seems to indicate they support pre-flight requests with credentials.

At this time I cannot guess if/how that plays nice with jqwidgets.

I hope this is clearer. Thank you.
