Can I call the blockchain.info API with just javascript or jQuery?

I'm trying to load http://blockchain.info/unspent?active=$address. From what i've read it should be possible somehow with cors, but i've been checking urls with this cors test: http://client.cors-api.appspot.com/client, and with or without the "?cors=true" i'm not having much luck.

Has anyone got this to work?
The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.

You need to use an ampersand for query parameters: "&cors=true"

ex -
Code:
$.getJSON("http://blockchain.info/unspent?active=1CjPR7Z5ZSyWk6WtXvSFgkptmpoi4UM9BC&cors=true", function (data) { alert(JSON.stringify(data)); });

@coretechs
I've tried a lot of variations and nothing seems to work. I still get this in the console:

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at http://blockchain.info/unspent?active=1CjPR7Z5ZSyWk6WtXvSFgkptmpoi4UM9BC&cors=true. This can be fixed by moving the resource to the same domain or enabling CORS.
