I searched a bit more on this and it seems that when using the XMLHttpRequest-based client (ajax) on Android phones (via the native browser) the runtime sends first an OPTIONS request (preflight request) to the remote side before it will allow any GET or POST requests. Anyone knows how to avoid this?
If not - what would be a standard way to run ajax or javascript on Android as clients? Can it be down via webview?
