Internet Explorer 7 .load event fails to set the content length when parameters are sent

[Iann]

Trying to run the following load command. Works fine in FF3.1, Chrome 1, Safari 3. Doesn't work in IE7.

$(me.grid).html('loading data...').load(me.viewType, {

view : + id ,page : + me.pageNum ,rnd : + (new Date()).getTime()

}, me.dataLoaded);

Investigating this, I have found that it is sending a POST request, with a content-length of 0 (zero).

Headers provided by debugbar v5.2:

Incomplete test-case. Without being able to see what data-structures you're using behind this example (specifically when loading external content we need to have access to the URL so that we can investigate whether its the cause of the issue), we can only guess what it is that you're trying to achieve in your code snippet.

If you can re-submit your ticket with a complete test case we will be more than happy to re-investigate. Closing for now.
