Re: RequestHandler::isAjax() buggy?

The function is extremely simple:

function isAjax() {
return env('HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH') === "XMLHttpRequest";
}

That's the standard way of checking for an ajax request. In regards
to debugging I'd suggest throwing in some logs, both $_SERVER and when
a successful ajax was accomplished. Track down the timestamp and
cross reference what request is coming across as ajax when it
shouldn't.

Hope that helps,
Nick
