I'm not sure if this was the most efficient way to do it but this is what I
did (and I haven't tested it across all browsers either).
First I copied the default ajax transport from jquery-1.6.2.js and added
this bit
if (c["X-Requested-With"]) {
delete c["X-Requested-With"]
}
(apologies for the minified variable names)
I added that whole function as a new transport for datatype "click"
$.ajaxTransport("click", function (a) {
.....
The other thing I need was a converter so that jQuery knows what to do with
the response (it doesn't do anything at all in my case so perhaps there is a
way to skip it.
$.ajaxSetup({
converters: {
"html click": function (a) {
return a
}
}
});
To call it you just need to set dataType as click in your ajax call
$.ajax({
url: '/myurl/page.htm',
dataType: "click",
accepts: {"click": "text/html"},
success: function(data) {
$('#container').html(data);
},
error: function(data) {
alert("error" + data.error());
}
});
Here is the whole chunk.
var xhrOnUnloadAbort = window.ActiveXObject ?
function () {
for (var a in xhrCallbacks) {
xhrCallbacks[a](0, 1)
}
} : false, xhrId = 0, xhrCallbacks;
$.ajaxSetup({
converters: {
"html click": function (a) {
return a
}
}
});
$.ajaxTransport("click", function (a) {
if (!a.crossDomain || jQuery.support.cors) {
var b;
return {
send: function (c, d) {
var e = a.xhr(),
f, g;
if (a.username) {
e.open(a.type, a.url, a.async, a.username, a.password)
} else {
e.open(a.type, a.url, a.async)
}
if (a.xhrFields) {
for (g in a.xhrFields) {
e[g] = a.xhrFields[g]
}
}
if (a.mimeType && e.overrideMimeType) {
e.overrideMimeType(a.mimeType)
}
if (!a.crossDomain && !c["X-Requested-With"]) {
c["X-Requested-With"] = "XMLHttpRequest"
}
if (c["X-Requested-With"]) {
delete c["X-Requested-With"]
}
try {
for (g in c) {
e.setRequestHeader(g, c[g])
}
} catch (h) {}
e.send(a.hasContent && a.data || null);
b = function (c, g) {
var h, i, j, k, l;
try {
if (b && (g || e.readyState === 4)) {
b = undefined;
if (f) {
e.onreadystatechange = jQuery.noop;
if (xhrOnUnloadAbort) {
delete xhrCallbacks[f]
}
}
if (g) {
if (e.readyState !== 4) {
e.abort()
}
} else {
h = e.status;
j = e.getAllResponseHeaders();
k = {};
l = e.responseXML;
if (l && l.documentElement) {
k.xml = l
}
k.text = e.responseText;
try {
i = e.statusText
} catch (m) {
i = ""
}
if (!h && a.isLocal && !a.crossDomain) {
h = k.text ? 200 : 404
} else if (h === 1223) {
h = 204
}
}
}
} catch (n) {
if (!g) {
d(-1, n)
}
}
if (k) {
d(h, i, k, j)
}
};
if (!a.async || e.readyState === 4) {
b()
} else {
f = ++xhrId;
if (xhrOnUnloadAbort) {
if (!xhrCallbacks) {
xhrCallbacks = {};
jQuery(window).unload(xhrOnUnloadAbort)
}
xhrCallbacks[f] = b
}
e.onreadystatechange = b
}
},
abort: function () {
if (b) {
b(0, 1)
}
}
}
}
});
