[OpenLayers-Users] CORS

[Andreas Hocevar]

If cross origin resource sharing is supported is only determined by
your browser, not OpenLayers. If you can control what your server
provides, you can either set the appropriate
Access-Control-Allow-Origin header and live with the fact that some
browsers don't support it, or use JSONP and OpenLayers.Protocol.Script
to make things work in all browsers. See
http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/cross-origin.html for an example.
