I am not sure if it happens with the contact page. I will check tomorrow. All the urls are relative though. Actually I tried changing urls to be absolute paths but that gave a javascript error.
The page that I have tested is the http://www.gautengfilmdirectory.org.za/dir page. There is a lot happening on this page. Each time a listing for a category is loaded I think it makes 4 or 5 AJAX requests. I tried changing the header to text/html on the server side on the directory page but that did not help. I spoke to the user with the difficulties IT guy. He said they have two separate proxy servers. When he tried the page without the proxy and it worked fine. He then tried the page through the other proxy which he said was 'SAMBA' and it worked fine. So it seems like it has something to do with WinProxy. I must admit that I did not know SAMBA was also a proxy server. Also one more thing. If you turn javascript off then everything will work because there is a page refresh version version for search engines and screen readers etc. Both the AJAX and the page refresh version of the directory use the same HTML templates to generate the listing content so I am sure it is the combination of $.post and WinProxy causing the problem. Could it be that because the return data does not have the <html> and <head> tags the proxy is blocking it? My plan was to: 1. Ask to see the relevant proxy log entries. 2. Create my own log file on the server side to see if the AJAX request was being allowed through the proxy, which would imply it was the return data that was causing the problem for the proxy. 3. Try sending the <html> and <head> and maybe the doc type tags in the server response. Lastly I was wondering if proxy servers did create problems for AJAX requests in general or if my problem is a very isolated incidence. Thanks in advance.
