AJAX https POST requests using jquery fail in Firefox

Question

I have a simple list of records in an HTML table with a delete link for each row. The delete link shoots off an AJAX post request to a fixed url that looks like: \"/delet

Sounds like you're getting an HTTP 411 error.. This error can happen if you're sending a POST request without any data.

To fix this, add an empty object ({}) to the data property to your requests:

$.ajax({ 
    url: url, 
    type: 'POST', 
    data: {}, // <- set empty data 
    success: function(data, textStatus) { 
        // do something 
    } 
});
