Remote API json response available?

Remote API json response available?

Hi,

I'm currently using the remote API to load a document in Zoho Writer and then have Writer save it back to my server. It's working great except that when I launch the writer, it is taking over the screen I was in, and then there is no way back to my application.

Ideally, I would like to open an iFrame within my application that contains the writer. I've experimented with using the different outputs available...however, due to cross-site-scripting domain restrictions, I can't POST to that URL and then parse the contents of the response for the iframe src. I could setup a proxy, etc etc but really don't want to get that complicated.

I see that other Zoho APIs provide a JSONP return type along with a callback function. Are there plans to have something similar for the remote API, or the proxy approach the only way for me to go at this point?

Thanks,
Charles.
