Allow AJAX GETs from Amazon S3? (Access-Control-Allow-Origin)

Question

I\'m storing JSON objects in Amazon S3, and I\'d like to load that data directly from S3 from Javascript. My GET looks pretty generic:

$.ajax({
    \'type\':         


        

Answer 1

S3 now supports Cross Domain Requests using CORS file.

You can find more information here:
