jQuery AJAX request failing in IE

Question

The following AJAX call is failing in IE.

$.ajax({
    url:\"{{SITE_URL}}/content/twitter.json\",
    dataType:\"json\",
    error:function(xhr, status, erro         


        

Answer 1

Fixed, I changed the content-type from application/json; charset=utf8 to just plain application/json.
I hate IE :)

Also to avoid IE super-caching try this:

var d = new Date();
$.ajax({
        url:"{{SITE_URL}}/content/twitter.json?_="+d.getTime(), 
...Snip...

That way each request is a new url for IE to get :D
