empty response body in ajax (or 206 Partial Content)
- by Nikita Rybak
Hi guys,
I'm feeling completely stupid because I've spent two hours solving task which should be very simple and which I solved many times before. But now I'm not even sure in which direction to dig.
I fail to fetch static content using ajax from local servers (Apache and Mongrel). I get responses 200 and 206 (depending on the server), empty response text (although Content-Length header is always correct), firebug shows request in red.
Javascript is very generic, I'm getting same results even here: http://www.w3schools.com/ajax/tryit.asp?filename=tryajax_first
(just change document location to 'http://localhost:3000/whatever')
So, it's probably not the cause.
Well, now I'm out of ideas. I can also post http headers, if it'll help.
Thanks!
