angularjs $http.delete breaks on ie8

Question

  success(function() {
    cart.products = someMethod();

    updateTotals();
  }).
  error(function() {
    console.log(\'C         


        

Answer 1

The problem is that delete is a javascript keyword and IE8 parses it slightly incorrectly. According to the standard, identifiers can be called delete. A quick fix is:

$http['delete']('/api/carts/' + productCode)

A little ugly, and I don't think the good angular people should have named that method delete, but that fixes your problem
