Hi all,

I am running Ajax on the native browser of Android 1.6 which is not too
famous for dealing with the same-origin security policies. The browser,
which is based on WebKit
The Ajax clients call remote web services from the phone and since the
scripts in them contain various URLs I get a preflighted request (with
OPTIONS). However, when the server returns the preflighted response
the browser does not do much beyond that (to serve the client that was
running on it). I cannot return these responses to the browser.

Any idea as to what the browser or the WebKit based browsers expect
from such preflighted requests?

Thanks very much in advance
Demetris
