Opera Mobile fails to initialize XMLHttpRequest

Description

Using the ajax features of jQuery on Opera Mobile 8.65 fails, since jQuery detects a window.ActiveXObject, tries to create an xmlhttp object using the ActiveXObject but fails. Apart from this, jQuery works fine on Opera Mobile.

Changing line 2638 in jquery 1.2.2 from

var xml = window.ActiveXObject ? new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP") : new XMLHttpRequest();

to

var xml = window.ActiveXObject && !jQuery.browser.opera ? new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP") : new XMLHttpRequest();

fixes the problem for me. Output from the attached file in Opera Mobile before replacing the above line: 

Test document


version: 8.65
safari: false
opera: true
msie: false
mozilla: false
window.ActiveXObject: [object PluginObject]

Output after replacing the line: 

Test document


version: 8.65
safari: false
opera: true
msie: false
mozilla: false
window.ActiveXObject: [object PluginObject]


Test document

See #3087 for a better more flexible fix than the one provided here.

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to duplicate

The XHR creation process is exposed since [5805] allowing overriding. You can add this code externally.

Please follow the  bug reporting guidlines and use  jsFiddle when providing test cases and demonstrations instead of pasting the code in the ticket.
