Rails spinoffs - Dec 2007 - Ajax Response events do not fire , using Mongrel with Ruby and Prototype.

Goodafternoon,

I have got a minimum Mongrel instance running (see ruby code) and i am
hitting it with an Ajax request using Prototype. (see javascript code)

 I get the ''onLoading'' event, but the other events never fire.
I am
getting the response because I can see the response from the Mongrel
server in my net monitor (Firebug). But the events itself  never fire
(no oncomplete and or onfailure)

Can anyone see what I am doing wrong?
Do I need to add something more  to the header in Mongrel?

Also i''m using the cross site ajax plugin to do cross Site Ajax calls.
(hence the crossSite:true) and trace does a write to the firebug
console.

Thank you very very much
kind regards,
Marco Kotrotsos

//Javascript

function request() {

        trace(''start'');
        new Ajax.Request(''http://localhost:3000/test'', {
          method: ''GET'',
          crossSite: true,

                  onLoading: function(transport) {
                  trace(''onLoading'' );
                  },
                  onComplete: function(transport) {
                  trace(''onSuccess'');
                  trace(''The message is ''+message);
                  },
                  onFailure: function() {
                  trace(''onFailure'');
                  }

});
}

//ruby

 class SimpleHandler < Mongrel::HttpHandler
    def process(request, response)
      response.start(200) do |head,out|
        head["Content-Type"] = "text/javascript"
        out.write("var message = ''hello'';\n")
      end
    end
 end

 h = Mongrel::HttpServer.new("127.0.0.1", "3000")
 h.register("/test", SimpleHandler.new)
 h.run.join
