jquery ajax request return status 0 with chrome, but works fine with IE8

Question

I am trying to use jquery/ajax to pull some data from server. The ajax status returned from chrome is 0, but IE8 works fine.

I am banging my head about this issue. I am not doing any crossing web server stuff and tried to use absolute url.

Any other thing to check?

Thanks

Without more details, the best I can do is point you to the following resources and hope you'll see something that looks similar to your setup:

• jQuery Ajax - Status Code 0?
• http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/javascript-dhtml-ajax/threads/282972
• http://markos.gaivo.net/blog/?p=109

Note that the issues are usually cross-site requests or using file:/// instead of http[s]://

Answer 2

try 'return false' at the end of the ajax code in case you are using image instead of button element to submit the form. Worked for me.
