when trying to find demos in the demozoo.org catalog

from inside the vAmigaWeb app ( https://vAmigaWeb.github.io ) ... we get this

Access to fetch at 'https://demozoo.org/productions/?platform=5&production_type=1' from origin 'https://vamigaweb.github.io' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

also vAmigaWeb needs to have CORS access to files.scene.org to actually fetch the demo file

Access to fetch at 'https://files.scene.org/get/parties/2021/flashparty21/oldschool_demo/nofflight.zip' from origin 'https://vamigaweb.github.io' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

@emoon do we have any chance that the CORS header in the HTTP Response can be changed for these websites ? ... either by addition of a static header and setting it to * or restricting it to vamigaweb.github.io ? Do you know the person or admin who we have to contact for this request ?

I found some API description in the demozoo.org forum

and it does already CORS ...

now lets see what we can do with it 😀

cool there are a lot of infos inside and also download links but they are again not accessible because of missing CORS headers for example I found this inside
