Question

I’ve tried this two ways.

Way 1

function Login() {
    var email = encodeURIComponent($("#loginemail").val());
    var pass = encodeURIComponent($("#password").val());
    $.ajax({
        url:"/user/login",
        type: "POST",
        data: {email:email, password:pass},
        dataType: "json"
    }).done(LoginDone);
    //$.post("/user/login", {email:email, password:pass}, LoginDone);
}

Way 2

    function Login() {
        var email = encodeURIComponent($("#loginemail").val());
        var pass = encodeURIComponent($("#password").val());
        $.post("/user/login", {email:email, password:pass}, LoginDone);
    }

Both ways work fine on chrome, but for some reason with IE it doesn’t send the data {email:email, password:pass} in the POST, or at all.

I’ve tried both on a local server, and on a live webserver, both with the same results.

Using IE10 here.

Answer 1

data: {email:email, password:pass}

should be

data: {"email":email, "password":pass}

You are passing the value of the variables as the key so if your server-side resource is expecting email it is actually seeing the value of that variable encodeURIComponent($("#loginemail").val()).

This is likely not an IE10 issue, this shouldn’t work as written in any browser.

Update

This answer may no longer be applicable due to bug fixes in IE 10.
