php set cors headers code example

Example: php cors

/**
 *  An example CORS-compliant method.  It will allow any GET, POST, or OPTIONS requests from any
 *  origin.
 *
 *  In a production environment, you probably want to be more restrictive, but this gives you
 *  the general idea of what is involved.  For the nitty-gritty low-down, read:
 *
 *  - https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTTP_access_control
 *  - https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#http-cors-protocol
