1) Given translation you're required to use CORS for cross-origin fetching to protect intranets (unfortunate as that may be). So like <script src> is out of the equation. This also means the header is required for such cross-origin resources. 2) I suspect you want a way to opt into using credentials (similar to <script crossorigin=use-credentials src>), but I agree that by default you should not include them (similar to <script crossorigin src>). -- http://annevankesteren.nl/ _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
