Why is AJAX returning HTTP status code 0?

Question

For some reason, while using AJAX (with my dashcode developed application) the browser just stops uploading and returns status codes of 0. Why does this happen?

Answer 1

In my case, it was caused by running my django server under http://127.0.0.1:8000/ but sending the ajax call to http://localhost:8000/. Even though you would expect them to map to the same address, they don't so make sure you're not sending your requests to localhost.
