I am working on a plugin and without Permalinks on, a jQuery call loads an XML file and displays the contents (this works fine)
When I turn permalinks on, even in month (/2010/11/title/) mode, the file generates a 404 error, BUT THE CONTENTS STILL APPEAR.
To clarify, if I type the url of the XML into my browser, the contents come up no problem, however when the page calls it, it just stops working. I opened it up in Google Chrome developer tools, and the file shows HTTP Status: 404 Not Found, but the content still appears.
It seems to be the permalinks that are causing this.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
