Is there any way to tell your localhost that it can do cross domain ajax calls?
I need this for my testing.
If it is a browser specific issue i am using google chrome.
Cheers.

For a successful cross-domain communication, we need to use dataType “jsonp” in jquery ajax call. JSONP or “JSON with padding” is a complement to the base JSON data format which provides a method to request data from a server in a different domain, something prohibited by typical web browsers.
A common problem for developers is a browser to refuse access to a remote resource. Usually, this happens when you execute AJAX cross domain request using jQuery Ajax interface, Fetch API, or plain XMLHttpRequest. As result is that the AJAX request is not performed and data are not retrieved.
For instance, if sending a request from http://www.example.com, any of the following would be "cross origin": http://mail.example.com (domain differs) https://www.example.com (protocol differs) http://www.example.com:8080 (port differs)
What's a cross-domain redirect? If you have a cross-domain redirect set up, that means that once someone clicks your ad, he or she will pass through a website with a different domain (for example, the “example.com” in “www.example.com”) before or after reaching your landing page.
It's very possible. Let's start with a dev browser.
Step 1: Download Chromium
Windows -- http://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/download-chromium
Mac -- http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/36244/chromium/
There should be a build ready to go, but these locations change over time. So if these end up with 404's do a Google search for Windows Chromium Download and you'll find it.
Step 2: Then run the executable with this flag after it. --disable-web-security
Windows -- Create a shortcut to the executable and tag this in the Properties. Or run from [CMD].
Mac -- Open up a terminal and run this straight from there with the flag.
And, you should be good to go. I also setup a quick Apache service and run through a 127.0.0.1 configured domain, but localhost should be just fine. Here's proof.
I hope this helps you!
