Make a CORS request in IE9 with cookies?
cookies, internet-explorer-9, xdomainrequest
Solution
From this page http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ieinternals/archive/2010/05/13/xdomainrequest-restrictions-limitations-and-workarounds.aspx at the bottom you can see `Update: Internet Explorer 10 now supports CORS using XMLHTTPRequest.` It means CORS is not handled properly in IE9. Sorry. They propose some workarounds with proxy in the same article.
Browser compatibility matrix is given at http://caniuse.com/cors where by partial support they mean
Internet Explorer 8 provides support via the XDomainRequest object but doesn't support credentialed requests http://code.google.com/p/sgvizler/wiki/Compatibility.
Problem
In IE9, I am attempting to make a cross origin request with cookies. However, even when I have the Access-Control-Allow-Origin, Access-Control-Allow-Credentials, Access-Control-Allow-Methods all set to the appropriate values (the origin domain, true, and GET, POST), IE9 still isn't sending or setting cookies from the request. Here's the script I'm using: ``` var xdr = new XDomainRequest() xdr.open("http://mydomain.com/cors.php") xdr.withCredentials = true; xdr.send(); ``` Any idea on how to get cookies to work with CORS requests in IE9?
