An example of Sinatra working with Ajaxified JQuery based on some pieces of code published by Rafael George on the Sinatra Google Group.

Nice example! I had to add a require 'dm-migrations' to make it work (see my fork)

Hi, I'm doing a client (in javascript/jquery) and a server (in sinatra) that returns json object to clients when they do request html via $.get (). My problem is that I obtain the next error in the console's chrome (it also happen in other browsers):

XMLHttpRequest cannot load ..... Origin null is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin.

I know it's a security problem. I have tried to fix it with several solutions suggested in forums, but they don't work.
Could I tell me if you have been this problem? and how you fix it?

Thanks in advance!
