Uncaught Error: SECURITY_ERR: DOM Exception 18 when I try to set a cookie

问题

I get the following error in Chrome\'s developer tools window when I try to set a cookie using this jQuery plugin:

Uncaught Error: SECURITY_ERR: DOM Exception 18

What does this error mean and how can I fix it? I get the same error when I use this jQuery plugin.

回答1:

You're most likely using this on a local file over the file:// URI scheme, which cannot have cookies set. Put it on a local server so you can use http://localhost.

I also had this issue while developping on HTML5 in local. I had issues with images and getImageData function. Finally, I discovered one can launch chrome with the --allow-file-access-from-file command switch, that get rid of this protection security. The only thing is that it makes your browser less safe, and you can't have one chrome instance with the flag on and another without the flag.

You can also "fix" this by replacing the image with its inline Base64 representation:

img.src= "data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhCwALAIAAAAAA3pn/ZiH5BAEAAAEALAAAAAALAAsAAAIUhA+hkcuO4lmNVindo7qyrIXiGBYAOw==";

Useful, when you do not intend to publish the page on the web, but instead use it on local machines only.

Faced with the same situation playing with Javascript webworkers. Unfortunately Chrome doesn't allow to access javascript workers stored in a local file.

One kind of workaround below using a local storage is to running Chrome with --allow-file-access-from-files (with s at the end), but only one instance of Chrome is allowed, which is not too convenient for me. For this reason i'm using Chrome Canary, with file access allowed.

BTW in Firefox there is no such an issue.

回答5:

This error pops up, if you try to create a web worker with data URI scheme.

var w = new Worker('data:text/javascript;charset=utf-8,onmessage%20%3D%20function()%20%7B%20postMessage(%22pong%22)%3B%20%7D'); w.postMessage('ping');

It's not allowed according to the standard: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/workers.html#dom-worker

I had this issue when using the history API.

window.history.pushState(null, null, URL);

Even with a local server (localhost), you want to add 'http://' to your URL so that you have something similar to:

http://localhost...

I wasn't completely happy by the --allow-file-access-from-files solution, because I'm using Chrome as my primary browser, and wasn't really happy with this breach I was opening.

Now I'm using Canary ( the chrome beta version ) for my development with the flag on. And the mere Chrome version for my real blogging : the two browser don't share the flag !

One can also receive this error if using the new (so far webkit only) notification feature before getting permission.

First run:

<!-- Get permission -->
<button onclick="webkitNotifications.requestPermission();">Enable Notifications</button>

Later run:

// Display Notification:
window.webkitNotifications.createNotification('image', 'Title', 'Body').show();

The request permission functions needs to be triggered from an event caused by the user, otherwise it won't be displayed.

I was been getting that error in mobile safari when using ASP.NET MVC to return a FileResult with the overload that returns a file with a different file name than the original. So,

return File(returnFilePath, contentType, fileName);

would give the error in mobile safari, where as

return File(returnFilePath, contentType);

would not.

I don't even remember why I thought what I was doing was a good idea. Trying to be clever I guess.
