I cannot do POST XMLHTTPrequest with CORS. GET request is ok, but my POST request throws Error loading content (NS_ERROR_DOCUMENT_NOT_CACHED) as HTTPfox says. I send just a string like "helloworld" and so there should be no content-type problems.

Request Header:

(Request-Line)	GET /receive-data.php HTTP/1.1
Host --------myhost-------------
User-Agent	Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:28.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/28.0

Accept-Language	en-US,en;q=0.5
Accept-Encoding	gzip, deflate
Connection	keep-alive
Cache-Control	max-age=0
Pragma  no-cache
Cache-Control no cache

Response Header:

Cache-Control max-age=0 ? If you change that value in a header editor, does the error still occur?

I think this add on allows you to do this? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fire.../?src=search
