jQuery Forum

 

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to upload a form via jquery forms plugin. Here's the form:

 

 

The form contains a file upload field to upload an avatar, and a div with an image where to show the uploaded avatar. Here is the script I use to upload:

 

 

This is the response sent from the server:

{"data":"/images/avfile.jpg","description":"","code":0}

 

This works fine in Firefox. However, in IE, the succedd callback contains null in the data parameter. I think this may be because Firefox sends the following headers on submit:

 

text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8

 

The server, controlled by Spring, reacts sending a context type text/html

 

if I try the same in IE8 the headers sent are:

image/gif, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, application/x-ms-application, application/vnd.ms-xpsdocument, application/xaml+xml, application/x-ms-xbap, application/x-shockwave-flash, application/vnd.ms-excel, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/msword, */*

 

Spring, in turn, sends a response context type image/gif

 

So, my questions are, ¿how relevant is the response content type returned to process the data parameter as a json response? ¿is there any possibily to add request accept headers in IE environment? Perhaps the error is somewhere else, and it has nothind to do with headers...
