I've been googling this for hours...
here's my angularJS code:
var FrontControllers = angular.module('FrontControllers', [] );
FrontControllers.controller('LoginController', ['$scope', '$http', function($scope, $http){
$scope.user = {};
$scope.login = function() {
console.log($scope.user);
$http({
url: '/webapi/login',
method: 'POST',
data: $scope.user
}).success(function (data) {
alert("success!");
}).error(function(data) {
alert("failed =(");
});
};
}]);
here's the accompanying html
<div ng-controller="LoginController" id="login" class="box">
<form novalidate role="form" action="/webapi/login" id="loginForm">
<label for="signin" class="sr-only">Email or Username</label>
<input ng-model="user.username" type="text" autofocus class="form-control input-lg" id="username" name="username" size="20" placeholder="email or username">
<label for="password" class="sr-only">Password</label>
<input ng-model="user.password" type="password" class="form-control input-lg" id="password" name="password" size="10" placeholder="password">
<button ng-click="login()" type="submit" class="btn btn-lg btn-bright btn-block">Login</button>
</form>
</div>
No matter what I do, I end up with a POST request that gets cancelled. I've previously succeeded in logging in to /webapi/login with standard jQuery ajax code. The server is configured for AJAX, so there's no need for a urlencode header. The Payload looks correct, identical to the one that sent by jQuery ajax.
What might be the problem?
