Description

I've tried to isolate one bug I have on my blog which is that, sometimes, Django just drop some HTTP headers.

I don't really know if it is the Django fault but here is how to reproduce the bug:

  • A simple view, which returns the string 'ajax' when the request is an ajax one, otherwise, 'not' is returned.
  • A Jquery script that call this views each t milliseconds (the bug appears, for both t=100 and t=1000).

After a quick analyze, I think this is coming from the way Django handle the request:

  • According to firebug, the header "X-Requested-With" is correctly filled but
  • when I print request.meta in the view, this header has just disappears.

I don't have the knowledge to extract the raw request as soon as Django gets it, so I cannot go any further.

I used Wireshark to capture the packet and apparently, the error is coming from jquery or firefox that
doesn't send the correct headers.

My mistake, Django has nothing to do with that.
