[cors] what's an example a simple request with credentials?

2011-12-23 Thread Benson Margulies
I am failing to come up with a sequence of calls to XMLHttpRequest
that will trigger credential processing while remaining a simple
request. Explicit credentials passed to open() are prohibited for all
cross-origin requests, and url-embedded credentials seem to trigger
the same prohibition. An Authorization header is non-simple.
Certificates would be rather gigantically difficult in the testing
environment I'm working with. There's talk of cookies, but those would
also make the request non-simple, wouldn't they?

Have you set withCredentials = true; ?

Yes, but don't I actually have to have some credentials as well? I
thought i tested this, but I may not have, so I'll go test it again.
