Cross Origin vs. Cross Domain

Cross Origin is about an approach to control other resource access. Cross Domain is is about a control on this resource. More specifically, when you are at http://www.abc.com/something.html, you want to access http://www.def.com/otherthing.html. Cross Origin is a control at the side http://www.def.com while cross domain restriction is at the browser side which does not allow to access the 2nd resource. We need a specification at http://www.abc.com to specify what other resources should be allowed to access at the browser side. However, at present, there is no such specification although we really need such a specification.

In fact, I think that this is easy to specify. In the html head, we can specify additional domains should be allowed to access. Browsers read these, then the original domain and the additional domains are all deemed to be the same origin. Currently, it is the browser block us. I am at http://abc.com/a.html, then I access http://def.com/d.html, with ajax or xmlhttprequest, use firefox, I can clearly see that the remote server returns everything, and everything is good. but the browser does not allow me to access the content.

This is not the right place for discussing the future of browser technology. I suggest you bring your use case and proposal to the mailing list of the Web Applications Working Group of W3C, where CORS, the specification of Cross Domain control in your terminology and the subject of this entry, is being developed. I'll delete your section for the moment as "we" (and also future stuff) is fairly rare in Misplaced Pages. — Kennyluck (talk) 22:29, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
