ChromeDriver doesn't support POSTing to /xdrpc #1147

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Some chromedriver clients, such as those that use webdriver.js, communicate 
with chromedriver through cross-domain XHRs. This breaks the same-origin policy 
so webdriver.js uses CORS to talk to webdriver servers.

Selenium server supports CORS through the /xdrpc (cross-domain rpc) endpoint. 
Since chromedriver doesn't support this, webdriver.js users need to use 
selenium server as a proxy to chromedriver, which requires pulling in java and 
selenium-server as dependencies.

We can remove this requirement by implementing /xdrpc directly in chromedriver. 
For reference, the selenium-server implementation was added in:
