asked on

dropbox issue

Hello,
  My company block dropbox from within our network.

Here is the script::

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.dropbox.com/static/api/2/dropins.js" id="dropboxjs" data-app-key="<%=ApiKeySettings.DropboxAppKey%>"></script>

Open in new window


Is it possible to download the dropins.js file to local machine?

Thanks

If it is blocked then it is blocked.  It is blocked for a reason and you need to take that up with your IT team.
EE is not allowed to help you to get around your companies security policies I am afraid.

check with your IT department and find out why they have it blocked. if you're working on a company application that uses dropbox, explain that to them and see if they can make an exception.

if the script itself doesn't make any connection to dropbox, then ask them to download it for you so you can put it on your system. if it does interface with dropbox, then there is no way to use it without getting your IT department involved

OK. is there a  function to test if Dropbox is allowed/blocked.  If it is not allow then don't load the javascript.. is that possible. Currently, I have to wait until it time out
if you use jquery, you can use the getScript() function
