Ajax Posts vs Firewalls

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 29.2008

A user of mine reported a strange error where one of the Ajax calls is not returning data while others are. The only difference I can see is that the Ajax calls that work are using ‘GET’ and the one that doesn’t is using ‘POST’. Using google I was able to find someone that had a similar issue but there was no reasoning why. Obviously I can just change it from a POST to a GET and see if that fixes things, but I was wondering if anyone else had seen this before or knew why it would be happening with some firewalls.

@Declan1991May 29.2008 — I'd say is that it has to do with the PHP script using the $_GET superglobal instead of the $_POST superglobal.

I'm not using those globals... the Ajax calls work fine for 99% of my customer base (myself included) which is why I am thinking it is a firewall issue. The Ajax is being called correctly it just seems that the data is not being returned.

Success!
