ajax callback not working in IE7

oggie

So I using the fnServerData parm to make a json get callback to get a list of data for the datatable. Firefox works fine, but in IE, the callback to the server never happens. Here's the code:
[code]
$('#chosenClients').dataTable( {
"bJQueryUI": true,
"bPaginate": false,
"bLengthChange": false,
"bFilter": false,
"bSort": false,
"bInfo": false,
"bAutoWidth": false,
"oLanguage": {
"sProcessing": "",
"sLengthMenu": "",
"sZeroRecords": "",
"sInfo": "",
"sInfoEmpty": "",
"sInfoFiltered": "",
"sInfoPostFix": "",
"sSearch": "",
"sUrl": ""
},
"aoColumns" : [
{ },
{ sClass: "center" },
{ sClass: "center" },
{ sClass: "center" }
],
"bProcessing": false,
"sAjaxSource": "clientSearchAjax.do",
"fnServerData": function ( sSource, aoData, fnCallback ) {
$.ajax( {
"dataType": 'json',
"type": "GET",
"url": sSource,
"data": aoData,
"success": fnCallback
});
}
});
[/code]

Why would this work in FF and not IE?

Ok. After some more digging, it appears that IE isn't making the call, but instead is caching this stuff even if you clear the cache and do the ctrl-f5 thing. So I either need to change it to a POST or else add some random number to the query string to force it to think it's new.

It worked if I changed the IE setting to check for newer version on every visit, but no one wants to tell everyone to make that change in their browser.

Just the jQuery cache option - https://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/ . Its a bug in very old versions of IE.
