Description
Hello,
The fix for ticket #4183 (between 1.3.2 and 1.4) implies that GET and HEAD ajax requests send a 'Content-Type' header when they should not, since these methods do not have a message-body.
Some servers refuse GET requests with a Content-Type header.
The problem is around line 352 in
src/ajax.js:
if ( s.data || origSettings && origSettings.contentType ) {
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", s.contentType);
}
A fix could be:
if ( (s.data && type !== "GET" && type != "HEAD") || origSettings && origSettings.contentType ) {
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", s.contentType);
}
Best wishes,
Bruno.
I forgot to say that, if I specify
explicitly as a parameter to , Firefox does not send the header, but Opera does (, so the problem remains.
