Hi I need some help with base authentification while a ajax get/post request to a python baseHTTPserver.
I was able to change some lines of code in the python script for sending CORS headers. It works fine in modern browsers when I disable http base authentification.
If authentification is enabled i get a 501 (Unsupported method ('OPTIONS')) error (i chrome).
I spend hours with finding a solution an now i think iam on a good way. As i read in the topics below the HTTPRequestHandler might cause the problem but my pyton skills are not good enough to solve the problem.
If found some post about this topic here and here but iam not able to get it running with the script i have. Can someone help me to get it running?
Any help or ideas are would be highly appreciated.
