Question

I’m trying to execute next:

$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: 'http://127.0.0.1:6789/dir', 
data: "",   
success: function(data) { /*do something*/ },
dataType: 'html'
});

But when it executes, my server receives something like below:

http://127.0.0.1:6789/dir?_32567871112

I don’t want to pass any parameters. What do I wrong?

Answer 1

In short, set cache to true in your $.ajax call’s options.

jQuery adds that for cache breaking.

There is an option in jQuery to turn that off: (from http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/)

cache

Default: true, false for dataType ‘script’ and ‘jsonp’

If set to false, it will force requested pages not to be cached by the
browser. Setting cache to false also appends a query string parameter,
“_=[TIMESTAMP]”, to the URL.

Example with cache set to true:

$.ajax({
  type: 'GET',
  cache: true,
  url: 'http://127.0.0.1:6789/dir',
  data: "",
  success: function (data) { /*do something*/
  },
  dataType: 'html'
});
