POST vs GET for initial load from server

[davidcarroll]

It would be good if the following code would cause the contents to be loaded via POST but this does not work, it uses GET regardless.

        var href = $(this).attr("href");
        $('<div/>').dialog2({
            id: "edit-address",
            content: href,
            type: "POST"
        });

I did examine the code and found the ajax call and there is a variable called type, but it is a local var that is never set. See the following:

https://github.com/Nikku/jquery-bootstrap-scripting/blob/master/lib/jquery.dialog2.js#L742-L770

note line 748 where the type variable is declared and line 762 where it is used

I would suggest that options.type is passed in to the load and then to the dialogLoad functions.

Hi David,

what you propose is something you are not allowed to do by accessing a resource via a ´´, either. That is why I will not support that feature in the library.

You can always think about performing a post operation via AJAX and displaying the dialog on top of the results.
