we need to be able to pass custom request headers and set a proxy when posting and changing the window location in an ajax post.

Example:

current url: www.domain.com/home

new window: www.newdomain.com

 

code (psuedo code)

$.ajax({

      url: 'http://www.newdomain.com',

      proxy: 'www.proxy.com:8080',

      enctype: 'multipart/form-data',

      data: '',

      cache: false,

      complete: function (){

            window.location('http://www.newdomain.com'),

      },

      beforeSend: addHeaders

})

 

function addHeaders{'user: someuser, session: sessionid}

 

In red above is a guess about the proxy, not sure how to set that at all. Also not sure I am setting the custom headers correctly. We are trying to tell the new domain that we are already authenticated and pass a current session id to it when changing the window location.

There may be a better way to do this instead of using .ajax-post, so I am open to a different idea. We can do something similar in C# code, correctly authenticate and get the appropriate response back, but I loose the session info when trying to open a new window location.

 

Thanks,
