Ok, that helped narrow things down a little bit. It seems that IE is
receiving the AJAX header after all. For some reason my JavaScript doesn't
always get rendered correctly in IE, but if I clear the browsing history,
cookies, temp files, etc., it works (at least until it starts caching things
again). So I'll have to play some more with that one.
Firefox is still not receiving the AJAX header, however, and I did download
the Tamper data add-on, and when the Tamper Popup window appears, it
indicates that it IS sending an AJAX header:
X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest
However, it seems like request.is_ajax() is not picking it up (maybe it's
different than HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH?). The code I used for that URL is:
def is_ajax_working(request):
if request.is_ajax():
return HttpResponse("Received AJAX header %s." %
request.META["HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH"], mimetype="text/plain")
else:
return HttpResponse("Did not receive AJAX header.",
mimetype="text/plain")
Opera also fails every time. Safari and Chrome, however, work like a charm,
so I'm kind of at a loss here. Any other possibilities? Thanks.
