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

In newer versions of internet explorer (IE7) it is necessary to write the next line before calling $.ajax, otherwise it would never call the function:

$.ajaxSetup({ cache: false }); //this line before $.ajax!!!
$.ajax({
    //codes
    //codes
    //codes
});
