FAQ
- Why do I need this plugin?
-
If you want to integrate content from your site to JavaScript applications running on other host domains (or allow other people to) then the CORS standard is a way to allow this.
- What is the difference between CORS and JSONP?
-
CORS is more modern and more secure since it works with the browser’s same-origin policy and XmlHttpRequest objects rather than bypassing them.
- Ok I’m sold, where can I read more about CORS?
-
You can find the CORS spec here: http://www.w3.org/TR/cors/ You can learn more about how to use CORS here: http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/cors/
- How do I control which sites can integrate using CORS?
-
This plugin’s Settings page allows administrators to specify a comma separated list of allowed domains.
