Im trying to create an ajax call through the following code
$.ajax({
url: '/',
method: 'GET',
data: data
}).done(function(response){
console.log(response);
}).fail(function(){
console.log("doesn't work");
})
Controller:
if request.xhr?
return "hello"
end
The ajax call works but the response I get is a html page and not the actual string "hello". Why is that?
