[YouTube-API] Re: need help on YouTube authentication API

Hello,

If you're trying to do cross-domain HTTP requests using JavaScript's
XMLHttpRequest, you're not going to be successful.

I'm not sure why you'd want to use XMLHttpRequest for logging in,
anyway. Something like AuthSub or OAuth is more appropriate for a web
environment (for any environment, really).
