Hi,

Can the blackberry.invoke object only be called from within the BB widget files, i.e. within the js file stored in your Eclipse BB Widget project or from outside/external file, stored on http?

Thanks,

Barbara

If you whitelist an outside origin in the <access> elements of the config.xml file (such as your own website) and then place the <feature> element for the invoke API in that <access> element, you can serve up pages from the whitelisted domain to execute this feature.

Thanks Tim.

Great, however, I got an error:

Invalid config.xml - no <feature> tags are allowed for this <access> element

<access subdomains="false" uri="*">  

 <feature id="blackberry.invoke" required="true" version="1.0.0.0"/>

</access>

Thanks

You cannot add APIs to wildcards because it opens up security holes. You will need to add APIs to a defined origin

Thanks. Worked great.
