I'm trying to load a cross-domain HTML page using AJAX but unless the dataType is "jsonp" I can't get a response. However using jsonp the browser is expecting a script mime type but is receiving "text/html".
My code for the request is:
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "http://saskatchewan.univ-ubs.fr:8080/SASStoredProcess/do?_username=DARTIES3-2012&_password=P#ssw0rd&_program=%2FUtilisateurs%2FDARTIES3-2012%2FMon+dossier%2Fanalyse_dc&annee=2012&ind=V&_action=execute",
dataType: "jsonp",
}).success( function( data ) {
$( 'div.ajax-field' ).html( data );
});
Is there any way of avoiding using jsonp for the request? I've already tried using the crossDomain parameter but it didn't work.
If not is there any way of receiving the html content in jsonp? Currently the console is saying "unexpected <" in the jsonp reply.
jQuery Ajax Notes
Due to browser security restrictions, most Ajax requests are subject to the same origin policy; the request can not successfully retrieve data from a different domain, subdomain, port, or protocol.
Script and JSONP requests are not subject to the same origin policy restrictions.
There are some ways to overcome the cross-domain barrier:
CORS Proxy Alternatives
Ways to circumvent the same-origin policy
Breaking The Cross Domain Barrier
There are some plugins that help with cross-domain requests:
Cross Domain AJAX Request with YQL and jQuery
Cross-domain requests with jQuery.ajax
Heads up!
The best way to overcome this problem, is by creating your own proxy in the back-end, so that your proxy will point to the services in other domains, because in the back-end not exists the same origin policy restriction. But if you can't do that in back-end, then pay attention to the following tips.
**Warning!**
Using third-party proxies is not a secure practice, because they can keep track of your data, so it can be used with public information, but never with private data.
The code examples shown below use jQuery.get() and jQuery.getJSON(), both are shorthand methods of jQuery.ajax()
CORS Anywhere
2021 Update
Public demo server (cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com) will be very limited by January 2021, 31st
The demo server of CORS Anywhere (cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com) is meant to be a demo of this project. But abuse has become so common that the platform where the demo is hosted (Heroku) has asked me to shut down the server, despite efforts to counter the abuse. Downtime becomes increasingly frequent due to abuse and its popularity.
To counter this, I will make the following changes:
The rate limit will decrease from 200 per hour to 50 per hour.
By January 31st, 2021, cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com will stop serving as an open proxy.
From February 1st. 2021, cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com will only serve requests after the visitor has completed a challenge: The user (developer) must visit a page at cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com to temporarily unlock the demo for their browser. This allows developers to try out the functionality, to help with deciding on self-hosting or looking for alternatives.
CORS Anywhere is a node.js proxy which adds CORS headers to the proxied request.
To use the API, just prefix the URL with the API URL. (Supports https: see github repository)
If you want to automatically enable cross-domain requests when needed, use the following snippet:
$.ajaxPrefilter( function (options) {
if (options.crossDomain && jQuery.support.cors) {
var http = (window.location.protocol === 'http:' ? 'http:' : 'https:');
options.url = http + '//cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/' + options.url;
//options.url = "http://cors.corsproxy.io/url=" + options.url;
}
});
$.get(
'http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing',
function (response) {
console.log("> ", response);
$("#viewer").html(response);
});
Whatever Origin
Whatever Origin is a cross domain jsonp access. This is an open source alternative to anyorigin.com.
To fetch the data from google.com, you can use this snippet:
// It is good specify the charset you expect.
// You can use the charset you want instead of utf-8.
// See details for scriptCharset and contentType options:
// http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/#jQuery-ajax-settings
$.ajaxSetup({
scriptCharset: "utf-8", //or "ISO-8859-1"
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8"
});
$.getJSON('http://whateverorigin.org/get?url=' +
encodeURIComponent('http://google.com') + '&callback=?',
function (data) {
console.log("> ", data);
//If the expected response is text/plain
$("#viewer").html(data.contents);
//If the expected response is JSON
//var response = $.parseJSON(data.contents);
});
CORS Proxy
CORS Proxy is a simple node.js proxy to enable CORS request for any website.
It allows javascript code on your site to access resources on other domains that would normally be blocked due to the same-origin policy.
CORS-Proxy gr2m (archived)
CORS-Proxy rmadhuram
How does it work?
CORS Proxy takes advantage of Cross-Origin Resource Sharing, which is a feature that was added along with HTML 5. Servers can specify that they want browsers to allow other websites to request resources they host. CORS Proxy is simply an HTTP Proxy that adds a header to responses saying "anyone can request this".
This is another way to achieve the goal (see www.corsproxy.com). All you have to do is strip http:// and www. from the URL being proxied, and prepend the URL with www.corsproxy.com/
$.get(
'http://www.corsproxy.com/' +
'en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing',
function (response) {
console.log("> ", response);
$("#viewer").html(response);
});
The http://www.corsproxy.com/ domain now appears to be an unsafe/suspicious site. NOT RECOMMENDED TO USE.
CORS proxy browser
Recently I found this one, it involves various security oriented Cross Origin Remote Sharing utilities. But it is a black-box with Flash as backend.
You can see it in action here: CORS proxy browser
Get the source code on GitHub: koto/cors-proxy-browser
You can use Ajax-cross-origin a jQuery plugin.
With this plugin you use jQuery.ajax() cross domain. It uses Google services to achieve this:
The AJAX Cross Origin plugin use Google Apps Script as a proxy jSON
getter where jSONP is not implemented. When you set the crossOrigin
option to true, the plugin replace the original url with the Google
Apps Script address and send it as encoded url parameter. The Google
Apps Script use Google Servers resources to get the remote data, and
return it back to the client as JSONP.
It is very simple to use:
$.ajax({
crossOrigin: true,
url: url,
success: function(data) {
console.log(data);
}
});
You can read more here:
http://www.ajax-cross-origin.com/
If the external site doesn't support JSONP or CORS, your only option is to use a proxy.
Build a script on your server that requests that content, then use jQuery ajax to hit the script on your server.
Just put this in the header of your PHP Page and it ill work without API:
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *'); //allow everybody
or
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://codesheet.org'); //allow just one domain
or
$http_origin = $_SERVER['HTTP_ORIGIN']; //allow multiple domains
$allowed_domains = array(
'http://codesheet.org',
'http://stackoverflow.com'
);
if (in_array($http_origin, $allowed_domains))
{
header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: $http_origin");
}
I'm posting this in case someone faces the same problem I am facing right now. I've got a Zebra thermal printer, equipped with the ZebraNet print server, which offers a HTML-based user interface for editing multiple settings, seeing the printer's current status, etc. I need to get the status of the printer, which is displayed in one of those html pages, offered by the ZebraNet server and, for example, alert() a message to the user in the browser. This means that I have to get that html page in Javascript first. Although the printer is within the LAN of the user's PC, that Same Origin Policy is still staying firmly in my way. I tried JSONP, but the server returns html and I haven't found a way to modify its functionality (if I could, I would have already set the magic header Access-control-allow-origin: *). So I decided to write a small console app in C#. It has to be run as Admin to work properly, otherwise it trolls :D an exception. Here is some code:
// Create a listener.
HttpListener listener = new HttpListener();
// Add the prefixes.
//foreach (string s in prefixes)
//{
// listener.Prefixes.Add(s);
//}
listener.Prefixes.Add("http://*:1234/"); // accept connections from everywhere,
//because the printer is accessible only within the LAN (no portforwarding)
listener.Start();
Console.WriteLine("Listening...");
// Note: The GetContext method blocks while waiting for a request.
HttpListenerContext context;
string urlForRequest = "";
HttpWebRequest requestForPage = null;
HttpWebResponse responseForPage = null;
string responseForPageAsString = "";
while (true)
{
context = listener.GetContext();
HttpListenerRequest request = context.Request;
urlForRequest = request.RawUrl.Substring(1, request.RawUrl.Length - 1); // remove the slash, which separates the portNumber from the arg sent
Console.WriteLine(urlForRequest);
//Request for the html page:
requestForPage = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(urlForRequest);
responseForPage = (HttpWebResponse)requestForPage.GetResponse();
responseForPageAsString = new StreamReader(responseForPage.GetResponseStream()).ReadToEnd();
// Obtain a response object.
HttpListenerResponse response = context.Response;
// Send back the response.
byte[] buffer = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(responseForPageAsString);
// Get a response stream and write the response to it.
response.ContentLength64 = buffer.Length;
response.AddHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*"); // the magic header in action ;-D
System.IO.Stream output = response.OutputStream;
output.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
// You must close the output stream.
output.Close();
//listener.Stop();
All the user needs to do is run that console app as Admin. I know it is way too ... frustrating and complicated, but it is sort of a workaround to the Domain Policy problem in case you cannot modify the server in any way.
edit: from js I make a simple ajax call:
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'http://LAN_IP:1234/http://google.com',
success: function (data) {
console.log("Success: " + data);
},
error: function (e) {
alert("Error: " + e);
console.log("Error: " + e);
}
});
The html of the requested page is returned and stored in the data variable.
To get the data form external site by passing using a local proxy as suggested by jherax you can create a php page that fetches the content for you from respective external url and than send a get request to that php page.
var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.open('GET', 'http://localhost/get_url_content.php',false);
if(req.status == 200) {
alert(req.responseText);
}
as a php proxy you can use https://github.com/cowboy/php-simple-proxy
Your URL doesn't work these days, but your code can be updated with this working solution:
var url = "http://saskatchewan.univ-ubs.fr:8080/SASStoredProcess/do?_username=DARTIES3-2012&_password=P#ssw0rd&_program=%2FUtilisateurs%2FDARTIES3-2012%2FMon+dossier%2Fanalyse_dc&annee=2012&ind=V&_action=execute";
url = 'https://google.com'; // TEST URL
$.get("https://images"+~~(Math.random()*33)+"-focus-opensocial.googleusercontent.com/gadgets/proxy?container=none&url=" + encodeURI(url), function(data) {
$('div.ajax-field').html(data);
});
<div class="ajax-field"></div>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
You need CORS proxy which proxies your request from your browser to requested service with appropriate CORS headers. List of such services are in code snippet below. You can also run provided code snippet to see ping to such services from your location.
$('li').each(function() {
var self = this;
ping($(this).text()).then(function(delta) {
console.log($(self).text(), delta, ' ms');
});

I have two webapps WebApp1 and WebApp2 in two different domains.
I am setting a cookie in WebApp1 in the HttpResponse.
How to read the same cookie from HttpRequest in WebApp2?
I know it sounds weird because cookies are specific to a given domain, and we can't access them from different domains; I've however heard of CROSS-DOMAIN cookies which can be shared across multiple webapps. How to implement this requirement using CROSS-DOMAIN cookies?
Note: I am trying this with J2EE webapps
Yes, it is absolutely possible to get the cookie from domain1.example by domain2.example. I had the same problem for a social plugin of my social network, and after a day of research I found the solution.
First, on the server side you need to have the following headers:
header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://origin.domain:port");
header("Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true");
header("Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST");
header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type, *");
Within the PHP-file you can use $_COOKIE[name]
Second, on the client side:
Within your AJAX request you need to include 2 parameters
crossDomain: true
xhrFields: { withCredentials: true }
Example:
type: "get",
url: link,
crossDomain: true,
dataType: 'json',
xhrFields: {
withCredentials: true
}
As other people say, you cannot share cookies, but you could do something like this:
centralize all cookies in a single domain, let's say cookiemaker.example
when the user makes a request to example.com you redirect him to cookiemaker.example
cookiemaker.example redirects him back to example.com with the information you need
Of course, it's not completely secure, and you have to create some kind of internal protocol between your apps to do that.
Lastly, it would be very annoying for the user if you do something like that in every request, but not if it's just the first.
But I think there is no other way.
As far as I know, cookies are limited by the "same origin" policy. However, with CORS you can receive and use the "Server B" cookies to establish a persistent session from "Server A" on "Server B".
Although, this requires some headers on "Server B":
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://server-a.example.com
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
And you will need to send the flag "withCredentials" on all the "Server A" requests (ex: xhr.withCredentials = true;)
You can read about it here:
http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/cors/
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/HTTP/Access_control_CORS
There's no such thing as cross domain cookies. You could share a cookie between foo.example.com and bar.example.com but never between example.com and example2.com and that's for security reasons.
The smartest solution is to follow facebook's path on this. How does facebook know who you are when you visit any domain? It's actually very simple:
The Like button actually allows Facebook to track all visitors of the external site, no matter if they click it or not. Facebook can do that because they use an iframe to display the button. An iframe is something like an embedded browser window within a page. The difference between using an iframe and a simple image for the button is that the iframe contains a complete web page – from Facebook. There is not much going on on this page, except for the button and the information about how many people have liked the current page.
So when you see a like button on cnn.com, you are actually visiting a Facebook page at the same time. That allows Facebook to read a cookie on your computer, which it has created the last time you’ve logged in to Facebook.
A fundamental security rule in every browser is that only the website that has created a cookie can read it later on. And that is the advantage of the iframe: it allows Facebook to read your Facebook-cookie even when you are visiting a different website. That’s how they recognize you on cnn.com and display your friends there.

Cross-domain cookies are not allowed (i.e. site A cannot set a cookie on site B).
But once a cookie is set by site A, you can send that cookie even in requests from site B to site A (i.e. cross-domain requests):
XMLHttpRequest from a different domain cannot set cookie values for their own domain unless withCredentials is set to true before making the request. The third-party cookies obtained by setting withCredentials to true will still honor same-origin policy and hence can not be accessed by the requesting script through document.cookie or from response headers.
Make sure to do these things:
When setting the cookie in a response
The Set-Cookie response header includes SameSite=None if the requests are cross-site (note a request from www.example.dev to static.example.dev is actually a same-site request, and can use SameSite=Strict)
The Set-Cookie response header should include the Secure attribute if served over HTTPS; as seen here and here
When sending/receiving the cookie:
The request is made with withCredentials: true, as mentioned in other answers here and here, including the original request whose response sets the cookie set in the first place
For the fetch API, this attribute is credentials: 'include', vs withCredentials: true
For jQuery's ajax method, note you may need to supply argument crossDomain: true
The server response includes cross-origin headers like Access-Control-Allow-Origin, Access-Control-Allow-Credentials, Access-Control-Allow-Headers, and Access-Control-Allow-Methods
As #nabrown points out: "Note that the "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" cannot be the wildcard (*) value if you use the withCredentials: true" (see #nabrown's comment which explains one workaround for this.
In general:
Your browser hasn't disabled 3rd-party cookies. (* see below)
Things that you don't need (just use the above):
domain attribute in the Set-Cookie; you can choose a root domain (i.e. a.example.com can set a cookie with a domain value of example.com, but it's not necessary; the cookie will still be sent to a.example.com, even if sent from b.other-site.example
For the cookie to be visible in Chrome Dev Tools, "Application" tab; if the value of cookie HttpOnly attribute is true, Chrome won't show you the cookie value in the Application tab (it should show the cookie value when set in the initial request, and sent in subsequent responses where withCredentials: true)
Notice the difference between "path" and "site" for Cookie purposes. "path" is not security-related; "site" is security-related:
path
Servers can set a Path attribute in the Set-Cookie, but it doesn't seem security related:
Note that path was intended for performance, not security. Web pages having the same origin still can access cookie via document.cookie even though the paths are mismatched.
site
The SameSite attribute, according to example.dev article, can restrict or allow cross-site cookies; but what is a "site"?
It's helpful to understand exactly what 'site' means here. The site is the combination of the domain suffix and the part of the domain just before it. For example, the www.example.dev domain is part of the example.dev site...
This means a request to static.example.dev from www.example.dev, is a sameSite request (the only difference in the URLs is in the subdomains).
The public suffix list defines this, so
it's not just top-level domains like .com but also includes services
like github.io
This means a request to your-project.github.io from my-project.github.io, is a a cross-site request (these URLs are at different domains, because github.io is the domain suffix; the domains your-project vs my-project are different; hence different sites)
This means what's to the left of the public suffix; is the subdomain (but the subdomain is a part of the host; see the BONUS reply in this answer)
www is the subdomain in www.example.dev; same site as static.example.dev
your-project is the domain in your-project.github.io; separate site as my-project.github.io
In this URL https://www.example.com:8888/examples/index.html, remember these parts:
the "protocol": https://
the "scheme": https
the "port": 8888
the "domain name" aka location.hostname: www.example.com
the "domain suffix" aka "top-level domain" (TLD): com
the "domain": example
the "subdomain": www (the subdomain could be single-level (like www) or multi-level (like foo.bar in foo.bar.example.com)
the "site" (as in "cross-site" if another URL had a different "site" value): example.com
"site" = "domain" + "domain suffix" = example.com
the "path": /examples/index.html

(Be careful; I was testing my feature in Chrome Incognito tab; according to my chrome://settings/cookies; my settings were "Block third party cookies in Incognito", so I can't test Cross-site cookies in Incognito.)
You cannot share cookies across domains. You can however allow all subdomains to have access. To allow all subdomains of example.com to have access, set the domain to .example.com.
It's not possible giving other.example access to example.com's cookies though.
Do what Google is doing. Create a PHP file that sets the cookie on all 3 domains. Then on the domain where the theme is going to set, create a HTML file that would load the PHP file that sets cookie on the other 2 domains. Example:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<p>Please wait.....</p>
<img src="http://domain2.example/setcookie.php?theme=whateveryourthemehere" />
<img src="http://domain3.example/setcookie.php?theme=whateveryourthemehere" />
</body>
</html>
Then add an onload callback on body tag. The document will only load when the images completely load that is when cookies are set on the other 2 domains. Onload Callback:
<head>
<script>
function loadComplete(){
window.location="http://domain1.example";//URL of domain1
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="loadComplete()">
setcookie.php
We set the cookies on the other domains using a PHP file like this:
<?php
if(isset($_GET['theme'])){
setcookie("theme", $_GET['theme'], time()+3600);
}
?>
Now cookies are set on the three domains.
You can attempt to push the cookie val to another domain using an image tag.
Your mileage may vary when trying to do this because some browsers require you to have a proper P3P Policy on the WebApp2 domain or the browser will reject the cookie.
If you look at plus.google.com p3p policy you will see that their policy is:
CP="This is not a P3P policy! See http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=151657 for more info."
that is the policy they use for their +1 buttons to these cross domain requests.
Another warning is that if you are on https make sure that the image tag is pointing to an https address also otherwise the cookies will not set.
There's a decent overview of how Facebook does it here on nfriedly.com
There's also Browser Fingerprinting, which is not the same as a cookie, but serves a like purpose in that it helps you identify a user with a fair degree of certainty. There's a post here on Stack Overflow that references upon one method of fingerprinting
I've created an NPM module, which allows you to share locally-stored data across domains:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/cookie-toss
By using an iframe hosted on Domain A, you can store all of your user data on Domain A, and reference that data by posting requests to the Domain A iframe.
Thus, Domains B, C, etc. can inject the iframe and post requests to it to store and access the desired data. Domain A becomes the hub for all shared data.
With a domain whitelist inside of Domain A, you can ensure only your dependent sites can access the data on Domain A.
The trick is to have the code inside of the iframe on Domain A which is able to recognize which data is being requested. The README in the above NPM module goes more in depth into the procedure.
Hope this helps!
Since it is difficult to do 3rd party cookies and also some browsers won't allow that.
You can try storing them in HTML5 local storage and then sending them with every request from your front end app.
One can use invisible iframes to get the cookies. Let's say there are two domains, a.example and b.example. For the index.html of domain a.example one can add (notice height=0 width=0):
<iframe height="0" id="iframe" src="http://b.example" width="0"></iframe>
That way your website will get b.example cookies assuming that http://b.example sets the cookies.
The next thing would be manipulating the site inside the iframe through JavaScript. The operations inside iframe may become a challenge if one doesn't own the second domain. But in case of having access to both domains referring the right web page at the src of iframe should give the cookies one would like to get.
Along with #Ludovic(approved answer) answers we need to check one more option when getting set-cookies header,
set-cookie: SESSIONID=60B2E91C53B976B444144063; Path=/dev/api/abc; HttpOnly
Check for Path attribute value also. This should be the same as your API starting context path like below
https://www.example.com/dev/api/abc/v1/users/123
or use below value when not sure about context path
Path=/;

Three main kinds of browser-based storage:
session storage
local storage
cookie storage
Secure cookies - are used by encrypted websites to offer protection from any possible threats from a hacker.
access cookie - document.cookie. This means that this cookie is exposed and can be exploited through cross-site scripting. The saved cookie values can be seen through the browser console.
As a precaution, you should always try to make your cookies inaccessible on the client-side using JavaScript.
HTTPonly - ensures that a cookie is not accessible using the JavaScript code. This is the most crucial form of protection against cross-scripting attacks.
A secure attribute - ensures that the browser will reject cookies unless the connection happens over HTTPS.
sameSite attribute improves cookie security and avoids privacy leaks.
sameSite=Lax - It is set to Lax (sameSite = Lax) meaning a cookie is only set when the domain in the URL of the browser matches the domain of the cookie, thus eliminating third party’s domains. This will restrict cross-site sharing even between different domains that the same publisher owns. we need to include SameSite=None to avoid the new default of Lax:
Note: There is a draft spec that requires that the Secure attribute be set to true when the SameSite attribute has been set to 'none'. Some web browsers or other clients may be adopting this specification.
Using includes as { withCredentials: true } must include all the cookies with the request from the front end.
const data = { email: 'youremailaddress#gmail.com' , password: '1234' };
const response = await axios.post('www.yourapi.com/login', data , { withCredentials: true });
Cookie should only be accepted over a secure HTTPS connection. In order to get this to work, we must move the web application to HTTPS.
In express.js
res.cookie('token', token, {
maxAge: 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24, // would expire after (for 15 minutes 1000 * 60 * 15 ) 15 minutes
httpOnly: true, // The cookie only accessible by the web server
sameSite: 'none',
secure: true, // Marks the cookie to be used with HTTPS only.
});
Reference 1, Reference 2
Read Cookie in Web Api
var cookie = actionContext.Request.Headers.GetCookies("newhbsslv1");
Logger.Log("Cookie " + cookie, LoggerLevel.Info);
Logger.Log("Cookie count " + cookie.Count, LoggerLevel.Info);
if (cookie != null && cookie.Count > 0)
{
Logger.Log("Befor For " , LoggerLevel.Info);
foreach (var perCookie in cookie[0].Cookies)
{
Logger.Log("perCookie " + perCookie, LoggerLevel.Info);
if (perCookie.Name == "newhbsslv1")
{
strToken = perCookie.Value;
}
}
}
I'm building a web widget that must be private (only trial/paid subscribers can use it).
Yeah, I know there's no secure way to accomplish 100% of security using a client side solution (JS). However, my intention is just to make it as difficult as possible.
So, here's the thing:
The user must register and provide his site's domain during registration. After that, he will get a 7 day trial and can configure his widget on my control panel.
After configuration he will be able to copy and paste the JS snippet that will load the widget's content later on his site. Ex:
<script>
(function(){
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
var token = 'f04e42bae1b330bdc35351f6f709f66b';
var data = {'product_id': 123};
$.ajax({
url: 'https://myserver.com/widget.php',
type: 'POST',
data: JSON.stringify(data),
contentType: "application/json",
beforeSend: function (xhr) {
xhr.setRequestHeader('Authorization', token);
}
}).done(function(data) {
console.log(data);
})
});
})();
</script>
PS: the production version of this snippet would be obsfucated.
Now I need to be able to control on my backend who is trying to load my widget's content. Currently, I'm doing the following:
Search for a user who has a token equal to the provided token and has an active subscription (trial or paid);
If user is found, set header "Allow-Control-Access-Origin" and proceed with the widget logic;
If no user is found, no header is set so browser will not load the content due to the "Same Origin Policy".
Ex:
<?php
$token = $_SERVER['HTTP_AUTHORIZATION'];
$productId = $_POST['product_id'];
$user = getUserByToken($token);
if($user){
header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: //" . $user->domain);
$w = new Widget($user);
$items = $w->getItems($productId);
...
}
?>
Here is what Chrome responds when no "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" header is set (in case the token is not valid or is indeed valid but your origin domain does not match the one that is expected):
XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://myserver.com/widget.php. Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://localhost:8001' is therefore not allowed access.
I understand that even if a user tries to use my widget on his site without paying for it using someone else's snippet/token, the "Same Origin Policy" will prevent him from doing so (browser will block it as above) because the domains will not match, right?
Is this method somewhat secure? Or there is a better and more secure way to accomplish this requirement? Any suggestions for the overall solution?
Thanks!
I have the weird issue, I have been looking for the solution for a while with no result. I'm developing a website, decided to load every subpage(content) dynamically via AJAX(also .js and .css files for each subpage). Now, when I'm working on it and change scripts/css for some file and refresh the page, it doesn't load them. It's like AJAX remembers the previous version, because when I turn it all of and come back after few hours it changes (!). Any ideas for this one? I want to avoid remembering anything by site memory(or anything) so I could work on this normally. I don't use jquery, I use pure js and my own function for ajax connection, maybe I should add there something? Here it is:
function sendQuery( data )
{
var http = new XMLHttpRequest();
var url = data["url"];
var params = "";
var query = data["params"];
for(var key in query)
params+=key+"="+query[key]+"&";
params=params.substring(0,params.length-1);
http.open("POST", url, true);
http.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
http.setRequestHeader("Content-length", params.length);
http.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
http.send(params);
http.onreadystatechange = function()
{
if(http.readyState == 4 && http.status == 200)
{
data["result"](http.responseText);
}
}
}
Not sure entirely what you mean, but this sounds like a caching issue, why not append the current time or a similar random string to the request as a separate parameter? This level of uniqueness should prevent the request response from being cached by the browser.
e.g. '?nocache='+new Date().getTime()
You may also want to prevent the server side response from caching the content returned by the call by setting the appropriate headers (e.g.):
response.setHeader( "Pragma", "no-cache" );
response.setHeader( "Cache-Control", "no-cache" );
response.setDateHeader( "Expires", 0 );
It seems highly related with your caching policy.
If you're hosting site with apache,
Check .htaccess in your root directory you might see something like this:
# Set up 2 Hour caching on commonly updated files
<FilesMatch "\.(xml|txt|html|js|css)$">
ExpiresDefault A7200
Header append Cache-Control "proxy-revalidate"
</FilesMatch>
The setting above set expire time to 7200 seconds = 2 hours.
To disable cache under development:
# Force no caching for dynamic files
<FilesMatch "\.(xml|txt|html|js|css)$">
ExpiresActive Off
Header set Cache-Control "private, no-cache, no-store, proxy-revalidate, no-transform"
Header set Pragma "no-cache"
</FilesMatch>
Then it should works properly.
Another way is to change this line:
var url = data["url"];
To:
var url = data["url"]+"&ts="+(new Date().valueOf());
To avoid the cache. Note: it's just pseudo code. "?" Should be handled if there hasn't one.
Hope it helps :)
