I'm guessing webkit somehow postpones the actual ajax call. Have you tried
with Chrome?

Anyway, I'm puzzled by the use of timeout. If you don't expect any answer
from the server, simply do not provide any success callback. Using a timeout
could have the consequence of cancelling the operation serverside if the
server has an increase in charge, your page makes use of sessions (in php
especially when another request has been issued concurrently for the same
user) or in case of network contention.
