Working with IIS

[samcov]

This is more of a question than an issue, so here goes.

Your webserver only handles HTML, not aspx pages, but I want to use Asp.Net, so here's the question.

Would it be possible to use IIS with an ASPX page, and point SignalR to a hub hosted in Nowin?

SignalR has a setting to set the hub URL

$.connection.hub.url = 'http://76.90.50.83/signalr'; // use the Hub on another server... Fantastic!!!

So I wonder if you know if this will work? Or possibly you can see that it won't work, but if it does, your product just shot up the ladder as a god send for all of us that can't get customers off of Windows Server 2008R2.

If you don't, I guess we'll have to test it, but intuitively, it appears to make sense!

Yes it will work. It's a normal cross domain scenario. Nowin is just another webserver.

@davidfowl - Yes, I just tweeted Damian that I got it working, and now the only issue is that in Chrome & FF I get a cross domain issue. Is there a setting in signalr or is that a browser setting?

The Error:
XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://localhost:8888/signalr/negotiate?connectionData=%5B%7B%22name%22%3A%22myhub%22%7D%5D&clientProtocol=1.3&_=1384501441119. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

Origin 'http://localhost:8081' is therefore not allowed access. signalr.html:1 [23:44:01 GMT-0800 (Pacific Standard Time)] SignalR: Stopping connection.

Wow, this is AWESOME!!!!

Also congrats on the Office Multi-Edit app, SignalR is hitting the big time!

@davidfowl - I figured out the cross domain stuff from answers on StackOverflow, but a major thanks to you for your comments [do you ever sleep :) ] and @Bobris for the great code!
