XHR-Polling only sends the first message in IE8

[saschagehlich]

Hey,

the following code works fine in Chrome but in IE8 it only sends the first request and all the others are ignored:

var server = { id: 2, host: "v5con.filsh.net", port: "3030" };
var socket = new io.Socket(server.host, {
    port: server.port,
    transports: ['websocket', 'htmlfile', 'xhr-multipart', 'xhr-polling']
});
socket.connect();
socket.on("connect", function() {
    alert("connected!");
    setInterval(function() {
        alert("sent!");
        socket.send("{\"action\": \"myAction\", \"server_id\": 2, \"token\": \"2IIQk\"}");
    }, 1000);
});

I fixed this one in my fork but I don't know whether guillermo already put that into his repo

it looks like your branch has been merged, but the error is still occuring. do you know what commit it was that fixed this so we can track it down?

This could be related to different port not being treated as cross domain. Fixed in master
