AJAXing in mega menus doesn't work locally unless within same folder about wet-boew HOT 9 CLOSED

Has this been fixed?

I don't see this problem in Safari on Mac OSX. Should mention that chrome does give access control origin error ala http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5224017/origin-null-is-not-allowed-by-access-control-allow-origin-in-chrome-why

I didn't fix it yet. I'm working on it.

Hmm wonder why I don't see this problem :P Thanks for getting back :)

Not sure but I think both Firefox and WebKit browsers have an option to disable the cross-domain policy on local files. I'll try to not have to fall back to that but at least we have the option.

It seems it would take so much hassle to fix this only for local use.

The good news is that there is for Firefox (and maybe for Chrome or could be ported to Chrome maybe) a plugin to add CORS headers to each request. Obviously this causes some security risks but could probably used to disable cross-domain policies for local files only.

@sylus what do you think?

Yeah there is no real solution for this. Your right that you can just pass in arguments or use plugins at least to make this work as expected. I guess if it works for production and can be well documented I can't see what else can be done?

I do worry about the users that will try this out locally and wonder why it is not working though. Hopefully documentation would address this.

Actually, for firefox, you don't need a plugin (plugins wont work). You can only go to the url about:config search for security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy and set it to true
