Hi all,
Is it possible to use ajaxSetup to define a username and password that
will then be used by getJSON?
I have an enviuronment where I have a web server that I'm passing a
URL to for a web service call that returns me JSON. I'm doing the
call via the getJSON method, and get back the data I want, except that
I'm being prompted to log in and I don't want the users to
authenticate.
I need to provide a username and password somewhere in the URL (or
additional details) and so added an ajaxSetup call right before I call
getJSON to set the username and password as follows:
jQuery.ajaxSetup({username: myusername, password: mypassword });
jQuery.getJSON(url, function (jsonObject) {
//do some stuff
}
);
For some reason I'm still getting prompted for the username and
password for the URL, even though they're being set.
I'm working with IE6, and jQuery 1.3.2.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Antony
