Welcome in 2019 – it’s time to upgrade out outdated LAMP stack series articles, with new “How To” setup basic web server for our stack.

In ancient times, when youtube was born, we didn’t have a VIDEO tag. We used to have Flash. To play video on the website, we had to convert it to weird Flash video format, leave mp4 for safety and hope that everything would work fine. Later on, when HTML5 became an industry standard, our lives became much easier.

In theory, VIDEO tag solves all our issues. When the browser can handle webm (Chrome family) we play webm. If we deal with other browsers – mp4 should work for us. So let’s test our theory.

From time to time we are working on small campaigns, where competition starts at given time. Because in Australia we have “so many” timezones, it’s critical to set things correctly according to the time zone.

There is a website, with iframe. I frame source is correct, but won’t display content of the website. No visible errors. There only small detail in the console:

Load denied by X-Frame-Options: https://... does not permit cross-origin framing.

Some crazy admin figure out that it’s going to be better… and put some crazy code into headers:

X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGINX-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=blockX-Content-Type-Options: nosniff

Solution: talk to the hand, because admin won’t listen ;P

When you start looking for a solution, you will find answers like using Cloudfront, lambda, and middleware 3rd party services. And basically, you don’t have any other choice. There is no simple solution to your problem. But – as long as you use Caddy Server solution is super easy.
