Description
I am using $.ajax to submit several forms on a page - some go to
php files and others go to java files. All the forms work great in
FireFox and IE. In Opera I am receiving a login dialog box asking for
user name and password when working with Java files in the background.
We tried the straight javascript non-jQuery AJAX call and did not
receive the dialog. Any thoughts on why Opera is showing this dialog
when using jQuery?
I am seeing this on our live server where jquery 1.2.2 is installed
and on a deveopment server where 1.2.3 is installed with a piece of
the 1.1 compatibility plugin.
This is because jQuery sends null username and password to the XMLHttpRequest and this triggers a bug(?) in Opera. See bug 2865.
