How to pass data in the ajax DELETE request other than headers

JqueryAjax

Jquery Problem Overview

Below is my Ajax request for a DELETE request:

deleteRequest: function (url, Id, bolDeleteReq, callback, errorCallback) {
	$.ajax({
		url: urlCall,
		type: 'DELETE',
		headers: {"Id": Id, "bolDeleteReq" : bolDeleteReq},
		success: callback || $.noop,
		error: errorCallback || $.noop
	});
}

Is there any alternative way to pass the data other than in the headers?

Jquery Solutions

Solution 1 - Jquery

Read this Bug Issue: http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/11586

Quoting the RFC 2616 Fielding >The DELETE method requests that the origin server delete the resource identified by the Request-URI.

So you need to pass the data in the URI

$.ajax({
    url: urlCall + '?' + $.param({"Id": Id, "bolDeleteReq" : bolDeleteReq}),
    type: 'DELETE',
    success: callback || $.noop,
    error: errorCallback || $.noop
});

Solution 2 - Jquery

I was able to successfully pass through the data attribute in the ajax method. Here is my code

$.ajax({
     url: "/api/Gigs/Cancel",
     type: "DELETE",
     data: {
             "GigId": link.attr('data-gig-id')
           }

  })

The link.attr method simply returned the value of 'data-gig-id' .

Solution 3 - Jquery

deleteRequest: function (url, Id, bolDeleteReq, callback, errorCallback) {
    $.ajax({
        url: urlCall,
        type: 'DELETE',
        data: {"Id": Id, "bolDeleteReq" : bolDeleteReq},
        success: callback || $.noop,
        error: errorCallback || $.noop
    });
}

Note: the use of headers was introduced in JQuery 1.5.:

> A map of additional header key/value pairs to send along with the request. This setting is set before the beforeSend function is called; therefore, any values in the headers setting can be overwritten from within the beforeSend function.
