You need to use jquery's jsonp request. See this short discussion on how to interface with facebook using this. JSONP allows for XSS ignoring the same origin policy.
You're violating the Same origin policy by requesting a different domain with Javascript. You'll need to do this server side (i.e. With PHP in your case).
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
