CORS request not working in Safari

Question

I am making a CORS xhr request. This works fine in chrome, however when I run in safari I get an \'Can not load ---- access not allowed by Access-control-allow-origin\'.

Answer 1

When I try

curl -v -X OPTIONS \
  -H 'Origin: fflog.storage.googleapis.com' \
  -H 'Access-Control-Request-Method: GET'  \
  https://storage.googleapis.com/fflog/135172watersupplies_json

I get, among other headers:

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *

When I execute AJAX requests against https://storage.googleapis.com/fflog/135172watersupplies_json from Safari 6.0.4 on Mac OS 10.8.3 I get 403 errors, but they do all execute.

So I can only guess that you are trying to send a credentialed request for which a wildcard Access-Control-Allow-Origin is not allowed.
