Windows Desktop Gadget using jQuery to call JSON from web site
===

Before anyone says this, yes, I did read through the various examples cited here in SO but none of them did what I'm looking to do.  :)

I can get my gadget to appear in the gadget list, and I can add it to the desktop.  I'm looking to have a simple drop down list which is updated by an ajax call. The drop down list contains "To Do" categories and when a category is selected/changed, the "To Do" items will be displayed in the gadget (in the file, I wanted the results to appear in the `<div id='results'></div>` so that the drop down list is still visible in case the user needs to change To Do Categories.  

I can get the drop down container to appear but when it attempts to make the ajax call, the data is not being returned.  

I understand I need to put in `$.support.cors = true;` but I have no idea where that is supposed to go.  I have found tons of postings that state it needs to be added as of jQuery 1.5 but none specify WHERE it needs to go.

I took apart the StackOverflow Flaid widget and it was the most help but even in there, I cannot find any reference to the `$.support.cors = true;`

I'm so frustrated.
