Ajax doesn't work in Firefox - Forbidden 403 error

[LetzGo BVBA]

Hi,

I have a strange problem with my first ajax script. It works fine at localhost in IE6, IE7 and Firefox. When I upload it to the server, it only works in IE6 and IE7 and NOT in Firefox.

The error I receive is a 403 Forbidden error (You don't have permission to access ... on this server).

This is the code where it goes wrong:

xhr.open('POST', 'ajax/merken.php?aard_id=' + aard_id, 'true');

Does anybody know this problem and a solution for it?

Have you tried using the full url instead of a relative path? That would be the first thing I'd try.

Are you using a Windows Server with built in Authentication?

Yes, doesn't work. It also a 403 error, not a 404. The script accesses the correct page (checked with firebug).

No, Linux/Apache

Are you actually posting any data, if not change the method to GET, see if that helps

Can you access ajax/merken.php with your own browser? Does that give 403 as well?
