# url's scheme is not one of "http" and "https"
#    A network error.

Why are we disallowing support for things like FTP?
Comment 1 Anne 2014-03-18 11:23:04 UTC 
They are only disallowed if request's mode is CORS, as CORS is an HTTP protocol.
Comment 2 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2014-03-19 20:53:35 UTC 
Oh, I see. I didn't realise that "tainted cross-origin" was the default.
