title: In an AJAX call, 302 is not followed
body: <p>I'm using jQuery 1.6.2 to make a POST AJAX request to a page on the same domain. That page does a 302 redirect to another page.</p>
  
  <p>Now, on my local machine this work fine but on our production server, the redirect is never followed and in the Chrome inspector the request is said to be 'canceled'.</p>

  <p>If I visit the same page without involving javascript, everything works fine, and as I said the AJAX works on my local machine but not on the production server.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know what might cause this?</p>
  
  <p>There are some differences between the servers (OS X, Apache2, PHP5.3.6, HTTP on local machine, Ubuntu, Lighttpd, PHP5.3.3, HTTPS on production) but none that to me should make any difference.</p>
