Ingolme Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 What happens when you try it in Internet Explorer 8?I was under the impression that jQuery takes care of cross-browser problems. Perhaps you have use an uppercase or lowercase letter in the URL you're requesting where it shouldn't go. Edit: Oh, wait a moment. You can't use AJAX for cross-domain requests. Perhaps newer browsers support it in some form, but older ones don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rain Lover Posted October 20, 2012 Author Share Posted October 20, 2012 (edited) You can't use AJAX for cross-domain requests. Perhaps newer browsers support it in some form, but older ones don't. You're right! But I don't know why it works in IE8 as well if I add dataType: 'script' to my code. Edited October 20, 2012 by Rain Lover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Have you looked up what the dataType property does? I have a feeling that it creates <script> tags, which can actually be cross-domain. It only works, though, if the file you're trying to call is a Javascript file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
