send POST request with angularJS despite same-origin policy

Question

Is there a way to send a POST request using AngularJS despite the same-origin policy? I don't need to get the response from the request, I just need to send the request. Just like creating a form and sending it to another server.

Thanks

You can use JSONP to send a request to another domain, however you can't use POST, it would have to be a GET request. Can you serialize your form values and send using GET?

Keep in mind that if you do use GET, you are limited with how much data you send, since URLs usually can't be over ~2000 characters.
