Yes, file:// and same origin policy is really a PITA and caused a lot of gray hair so far.
My preferred toolbox for this: Node: nws (npm install –g nws ) : nws –o will also spawn a browser Python: python –m SimpleHttpServer Or (preferred) use an html editor with live preview, such as brackets – spawns up a server and live-linked browser with a mouseclick. I didn’t know of tape, but seems useful as well. BR Johannes Von: JDev [mailto:jdev-boun...@jabber.org] Im Auftrag von Chris Fortmüller Gesendet: Freitag, 5.

Just saw tape as well, will use that for now!

I still don't quite understand why. If I access the code locally from my machine, and then try to connect to a server on the web, the domain where the code is hosted (my local machine) and the server domain are different, but this is also the case if I host the code on a server and try to connect to a server in another domain, which does work. So I don't quite understand what is the problem then when I access the code locally By "locally", do you mean file://<file:///\\>? I reckon the browser folk broke file:// completely for almost anything useful. Jack Moffit wrote a thing called Tape years back to handle problems like this - a microserver for development you can run quickly out of any directory. There's Node based stuff for this kind of thing too.
