**Note:** A note about the `dataType` setting: if the server sends back data that is in a different format than you specify, your code may fail, and the reason will not always be clear, because the HTTP response code will not show an error. When working with Ajax requests, make sure your server is sending back the data type you're asking for, and verify that the `Content-type` header is accurate for the data type. For example, for JSON data, the `Content-type` header should be `application/json`.
