title: JQuery $.ajax doesn't return anything, but only in Google Chrome?
body: <p>I'm hoping someone can help me with this as I'm at a loss.  I'm trying to simply load a plain text file into a page at runtime using jquery- everything works fine in IE8 (8.0.7600.16385), Firefox 3.6.3, however in Google Chrome 5.0.375.55 the "data" comes back as nothing- i get an empty alert box.</p>
  
  <p>This is the code i'm using;</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"&gt;
  &lt;html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"&gt;
  &lt;head&gt;
      &lt;title&gt;Animation Test&lt;/title&gt;
      &lt;script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
      &lt;script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"&gt;
          $(document).ready(function () {
              $.ajax({
                  url: 'level1.txt',
                  success: function (data) {
                      alert(data);
                  },
                  async: true,
                  type: 'GET'
              });
          });
  &lt;/script&gt; 
  &lt;/head&gt;
  &lt;body&gt;
      &lt;canvas id="canvas" width="640" height="480"&gt;
          Unsupported Browser
      &lt;/canvas&gt;
  
  &lt;/body&gt;
  &lt;/html&gt;

  <p>(Yes- it's the first level from Manic Miner! I'm making a javascript version using the html5 canvas to get my head around using it.)</p>
  
  <p>I'm at a total loss- it can't be the code because it runs in the other 2 browsers- is there an issue with jquery and this version of Chrome?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for reading!!</p>
