Using Angular 1.0.8 I was trying to load a JSON from a server that doesn't support get OPTIONS, and consequently got a error.

Demo for 1.0.8

OPTIONS  405 (Method Not Allowed)
OPTIONS  Origin  is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin.
XMLHttpRequest cannot load . Origin  is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin. 

I've tried to update angular to 1.2.0-RC and the error is gone.

Demo for 1.2.0

This is exactly the same code, a fork that loads the new version of angular, in fact the code is almost the same you can find in $http angularjs docs.

How can I fix the this problem using the v1.0.8?

I've read some hints about removing the headers from the request but couldn't make this work over the sample code above.

• javascript
• json
• angularjs
• http-headers
• cross-domain

Try this:

delete $http.defaults.headers.mon['X-Requested-With'];

I added that line before the call to $http and it worked in your 1.0.8 plunker.
