I use jquery.cookie.js plugin for my application (within server, only html5)
the follow code works for IE9 an firefox but not for Chrome :
$.cookie('the_cookie', 'the_value');
If I run Chrome with option --enable-file-cookies it's OK and my Chrome browser support cookies
My question : Is it any way to enable this option with javascript not by terminal?
chrome has problems if you test that on 'localhost'. Use 127.0.0.1 instead
No it is security related approach in Google Chrome. It should be a bug in Chrome if you are able to enable something the client disabled it.

Before firefox's ver 57 I was using https://github.com/edabg/jsprintsetup to change the printing configuration on the fly. This is no longer possible.
Using about:config on the browser window I can change the settings I want and when opening a new tab the changes are reflected.
My question is how do I do this after version 57? Im open to developing an extension or an add-on for firefox for this. Some of the preferences I want to change is the print.{printer}.print_orientation,print.always_print_silent etc
This is used only within the companys Intranet system, so security wont be an issue.
There is no WebExtension API for preferences manipulation.
The only way out is to implement your own experiment API, but extensions with experiment API work only on Firefox Nightly and Developer Edition.
I'm trying to access a file on a shared drive from my application in Chrome. I know there is the --allow-file-access-from-files flag, and I've tried this to no avail. Here are the links I've tried on stackoverflow:
Can Google Chrome open local links?
How to launch html using Chrome at “--allow-file-access-from-files” mode?
I can't get “--allow-file-access-from-files” or the LocalLinks Chrome extension to work. Is there another setting I have to change? Has this been disabled? I'm running Chrome version 51.0.2704.106 if that makes a difference.
Is there a way to re-enable the document.execCommand("cut") Javascript method call in Google Chrome? Palm's WebOS Enyo framework uses this is a few places, which means when I'm working on applications locally I can't access every API of the framework.
Insight from all platforms welcome, but I'm working on OS X so those answers are preferred.
You are going to have to use the emulator for some functionality.
I dont know if other WebKit browsers like Safari have this ability enabled however.
Chrome does not support execCommand or clipboard interaction, which is considered a security threat.
For example, Google docs on chrome shows a "Please use CTRL+X or use your browser's edit menu" dialog when a user tries to execute cut from google docs' UI.
An experimental clipboard API is available for chrome extensions: http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/experimental.clipboard.html#method-executeCut
I'm developing a JavaScript application that needs to run on the Google Android Phone OS. Is there a way to enable the JavaScript Error/Debug console within Safari on either the Android Emulator or an actual device? If so any instructions on how to do so would be appreciated.
It looks like, with the Android 2.0.1 SDK you'll need to filter on "browser" instead of "WebCore"
A quick Google turns up this blog post (posted after you asked your question), that should at least let you see any Javascript errors via the Android Debug Bridge using the command:
adb logcat WebCore:V *:S
Not quite the same as a full debug console though.
On Android write about:debug on the address line when the current page is the page you want to debug. you will get access to the console.
I know your question is about Safari, but you might want to look into using Chrome instead. You can now use Chrome's desktop developer tools to debug and profile apps on your Android device.
Here's how:
On Android Chrome, go to settings -> Developer tools and check "Enable USB Web debugging"
On the desktop, run adb forward tcp:9222 localabstract:chrome_devtools_remote
Now on Desktop Chrome, navigate to localhost:9222.
You should see a list of the pages you have open on your phone. Click the one you want to debug/profile.
Detailed instructions are here
I have discovered that you can get this debugging information on the phone itself, without needingn to use adb or plug it into a computer, just download a log viewer.
Check the link for more info.
You can view the log and much more with weinre
From the Weinre docs
weinre is a debugger for web pages, like FireBug (for FireFox) and Web Inspector (for WebKit-based browsers), except it's designed to work remotely, and in particular, to allow you debug web pages on a mobile device such as a phone.
I want to develop JavaScript on my Windows machine. Do you know a browser where I can turn off Same Origin Policy so I can develop locally? Firefox would be optimal.
Or if you know a proxy I could use for a SOAP/WSDL site it would be great too.
I am trying to work with the JavaSCript SOAP Client.
UPDATE 6/2012: This used to work at the time of the writing, but obviously no more. Sorry.
In Firefox (might apply to other Gecko-based browsers as well) you can use the following JavaScript snippet to allow cross-domain calls:
if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Firefox") != -1) {
try {
netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalBrowserRead");
}
catch (e) {
alert("Permission UniversalBrowserRead denied -- not running Mozilla?");
}
}
It looks like there's an issue created in the Chromium issue tracker for achieving the same functionality, so you could try starting Chrome with the argument --disable-web-security. I don't know which builds this works on exactly, but at least Nokia's WRT Tools comes with a Chrome installation that does in fact allow loading content from other sites.
Unfortunately, using the following:
netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalBrowserRead");
has been disabled in Firefox 5.

Make a page on your local server that calls the remote server and answer the same as the remote server.
Example, javascript calls local server for a JSON. The local server makes the call to the remote server for that JSON. The local server receives the JSON from the remote server and send it to the javascript.
Using the Chromium 13.07, you can start it with security disabled:
/usr/bin/chromium-browser --disable-web-security
That's on Ubuntu 11, but change the location as your system.
All of the given answers are good ones when it comes to getting around the same origin policy in production.
For development, there is no convenient way to "disable" this security check. There are workarounds (see other answers) or hacks (you could use Greasemonkey to wrap up the JavaScript and use their GM_xmlhttprequest as a temporary measure), but no way to actually "turn it off" as you describe.
i run this command on mac, it works on me when i use google chrome to run my project.
open -a Google\ Chrome --args --disable-web-security --user-data-dir
I have no real experience with this, but FireFox 3.5 allows Cross-Site JS according to the W3C Cross-Origin Resource Sharing Draft.
See: https://developer.mozilla.org/En/HTTP_access_control
Firefox would be optimal.
If you can live with Internet Explorer, you may be able to use an .hta application
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms536496(VS.85).aspx
(This is one of the ways the Selenium test automation tool deals with the issue)
In Chrome (& Chromium) 48 and above you should add the flag --user-data-dir like this:
chromium-browser --disable-web-security --user-data-dir
And it works.
You can also redirect a local port to the remote server and port via ssh.
