Jquery .Ajax error when trying to POST data in ASP.NET MVC
- by GB
I am unable to access an action in my controller using .ajax. The code works on my development machine but as soon as I place it on the server it gives the error 401 Unauthorized. Here is a snippet of the code in the .aspx file...
var encoded = $.toJSON(courseItem);
$.ajax({
url: '<%= Url.Action("ViewCourseByID", "Home") %>/',
type: "POST",
dataType: 'json',
data: encoded,
//contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
success: function(result) {
Update: The only time this doesn't work is when I pass json data to the Ajax call, it works fine with HTML data.
