Rails spinoffs - Feb 2006 - RE: [Prototype] onSuccess Event and, Ajax.Updater bug in IE

Joe,

After removing all occurrences of charset=utf-8 from
my headers I am 
still getting the same bug in IE. 
Currently, it''s Content-Type: text/html
Any other suggestion?

Nathan.

Hi Nathan,

I''m pretty sure that you need to set the content type to
"text/javascript".

If you look at prototype.js the Ajax.Request respondToReadyState has a
content type check: 
      if ((this.header(''Content-type'') ||
'''').match(/^text\/javascript/i))
        this.evalResponse();

Good luck.

Joe
