Get request with string that contains ",jpg"

Get request with string that contains ",jpg"

Hi,

Have a strange case where I try to make a GET request using jQuery.

  1. $.ajax({
            type: 'GET',
            url: 'MyMethod?param=ABC.ABC',
            timeout: 10000,
            contentType: 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8',        
            success: function (data) {
            },
            error: function (xhr, status, error) {         
            }
        });

The method above works fine. But if I change the URL to

'MyMethod?param=ABC.jpg',

it's not working, the method (MyMethod) never gets called. Could anyone explain this?

I'm using jQuery 1.9.1
