enable cors in .htaccess

Question

I have created a basic RESTful service with the SLIM PHP framework and now I'm trying to wire it up so that I can access the service from an Angular.js project. I have read that Angular supports CORS out of the box and all I needed to do was add this line: Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*" to my .htaccess file.

I've done this and my REST application is still working (no 500 internal server error from a bad .htaccess) but when I try to test it from test-cors.org it is throwing an error.

Fired XHR event: loadstart
Fired XHR event: readystatechange
Fired XHR event: error

XHR status: 0
XHR status text: 
Fired XHR event: loadend

My .htaccess file looks like this

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ /index.php [QSA,L]
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Methods: "GET,POST,OPTIONS,DELETE,PUT"

Is there something else I need to add to my .htaccess to get this to work properly or is there another way to enable CORS on my server?

Answer 1

Should't the .htaccess use add instead of set?

Header add Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Methods: "GET,POST,OPTIONS,DELETE,PUT"

Answer 2

Will be work 100%, Apply in .htaccess:

# Enable cross domain access control
SetEnvIf Origin "^http(s)?://(.+\.)?(1xyz\.com|2xyz\.com)$" REQUEST_ORIGIN=$0
Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Origin %{REQUEST_ORIGIN}e env=REQUEST_ORIGIN
Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Methods "GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS"
Header always set Access-Control-Allow-Headers "x-test-header, Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept"

# Force to request 200 for options
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} OPTIONS
RewriteRule .* / [R=200,L]
