A simple PHP – Zend Framework script to enable a cross domain request to the OWN3D API (the full project contains two, one for the live status and one for the channel information).

<?php

// Ensure library/ is on include_path

    realpath(APPLICATION_PATH . '/../../apps/library'),
    get_include_path(),
)));

$liveid = isset($_GET['live_id']) ? intval($_GET['live_id']) : 0;

require_once 'Zend/Http/Client.php';
$client = new Zend_Http_Client('http://api.own3d.tv/liveCheck.php?live_id='.$liveid, array('adapter' => 'Zend_Http_Client_Adapter_Socket'));

$xmlstr = $client->request()->getBody();
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlstr);

require_once 'Zend/Json/Encoder.php';
header('Content-Type: application/json');

// JSONP

It prevents IE from nagging about insecure content. Anyway, I can also advice on not using IE altogether.
