AJAX Problem – No response text in FireFox, but ok in IE

I am making a simple AJAX call to an external site. It works ok in IE, but in Firefox, not response text is returned.

I think it might have something to do with the response being “chunked”, but I’m not sure.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Answer

Is your page hosted at http://drc.edeliver.com.au also? If not, then you can’t make an XMLHttpRequest to that URL. It’s a violation of basic browser security which, for your IE tests, are probably suppressed by explicit browser configuration.

edit — I think IE lets the “local security zone” (or whatever they call it) get away with stuff that is not allowed for “Internet” zone pages.
