[webkit-dev] Disable Javascript security warnings?
Hey all, I'm working on a web scraper that embeds WebKit directly (via pyWebKitGTK if it matters, though I don't think my question is specific to that library). I'm trying to extract image metadata (domains, dimensions, location on the page, etc) from a page, including any iframes that are embedded there. Because WebKit already knows everything about the data I want (image dimensions, position on page), I'm extracting content by executing javascript via the webkit_web_view_execute_script call described here: http://webkitgtk.org/reference/webkitgtk-webkitwebview.html#webkit-web-view-execute-script My javascript works when the iframes are on the same domain, but fails (obviously) when they're not. How can I disable the Unsafe JavaScript attempt to access frame with URL http://www.google.com/ from frame with URL http://10.0.0.50/js_test.html. Domains, protocols and ports must match. error message? I've come across the WebKitSecurityOrigin object and I've been able to extract the host/port/protocol of my current page, but I haven't found a way to spoof this mechanism… I know too that Chrome has the --disable-web-security flag, but I can't quite put my finger on what I need to do to replicate this functionality when working with WebKit directly. Can anyone offer a pointer or suggestion? Thanks so much! --Rob ___ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
Re: [webkit-dev] Disable Javascript security warnings?
From your javascript, perhaps you can set the referring URL in the HTTP Headers of the request( to get IFrames) to http://www.google.com;, or whichever URL you are requesting the frames for? You will have to create your own XHR object for the HTTP Request.

There is a setting to disable security. I'm not sure whether it is exposed in the API you're using.
