Cant stop error 12152

[1DMF]

Everytime I make an AJAX call I am getting a return code of 12152.

I've found a few threads talking about it to do with SSL , however I have another AJAX script working fine on SSL on the same server, so now i'm thinking it's a windows user account issue.

The script is located on an area that has a windows username / password protection, now i've already navigated to the form and it's asked me for these login details, so the browser has been authenticated.

So am I to assume that the browser issuing an AJAX request isn't passing the authentication the server requires to validate the browser session is logged in?

If this is the problem, is there a way round it?

Thanks,

Found the answer, typical 'cargo-cult' programing came bit me on the ass!!!

I had used some AJAX code from an example page, and until now it had served me well.

But there was a line here.....

http_request.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");

I always assumed this was just closing the header statements prior to the send request ...

http_request.open('POST', url, true);
      http_request.onreadystatechange = alertContents;
      http_request.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-[URL unfurl="true"]www-form-urlencoded");[/URL]
      http_request.setRequestHeader("Content-length", parameters.length);
      //http_request.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
      http_request.send(parameters);

But as soon as I commented out the requestHeader(close), it works fine!

Phew, now I can get on with developing!
