I can't change HTTP request header Content-Type value using jQuery
- by Matt
Hi
I tried to override HTTP request header content by using jQuery's AJAX function. It looks like this
$.ajax({
type : "POST",
url : url,
data : data,
contentType: "application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=big5",
beforeSend: function(xhr) {
xhr.setRequestHeader("Accept-Charset","big5");
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=big5");
},
success: function(rs) {
target.html(rs);
}
});
Content-Type header is default to "application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8", but it obviously I can't override its value no matter I use 'contentType' or 'beforeSend' approaches.
Could anyone adivse me a hint that how do I or can I change the HTTP request's content-type value?
thanks a lot.
btw, is there any good documentation that I can study JavaScript's XMLHttpRequest's encoding handling?
