Can I set a header with python's SimpleHTTPServer?

Question

I\'m using SimpleHTTPServer to test some webpages I\'m working on. It works great, however I need to do some cross-domain requests. That requires setting a

While this is an older answer, its the first result in google...

Basically what @iMon0 suggested..Seems correct?..Example of doPOST

def do_POST(self):
    self.send_response()
    self.send_header('Content-type','application/json')
    self.send_header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin','*')
    self.end_headers()
    sTest = {}
    sTest['dummyitem'] = "Just an example of JSON"
    self.wfile.write(json.dumps(sTest))

By doing this, the flow feels correct..

1: You get a request

2: You apply the headers and response type you want

3: You post back the data you want, be this what or how ever you want.,

The above example is working fine for me and can be extended further, its just a bare bone JSON post server. So i'll leave this here on SOF incase someone needs it or i myself come back in a few months for it.

This does produce a valid JSON file with only the sTest object, Same as a PHP generated page/file.
