JQuery Ajax call often not working on Safari 6

Question

My Ajax call is really simple as below:

function ajax(reqUrl, params , callback) {
console.log(\"Request URL \"+reqUrl);
var cond;
cond = $.ajax({
    type:

This seems to be a Safari issue. In this post there is a suggestion to add a beforeSend to your ajax-request.

In your case:

cond = $.ajax({
    type: 'post',
    url: reqUrl,
    data: params,
    beforeSend: function (event, files, index, xhr, handler, callBack) {
         $.ajax({
             async: false,
             url: 'closeconnection.php' // add path
         });
    },
    error:function(){ alert("some error occurred") },
    success: callback
});
