           Summary: XMLHttpRequest 304 "not modified" status not returned in
                    asynchronous mode
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 417.x
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: XML DOM
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: sen at rotsen.be


via http://bugzilla.opendarwin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3810#c8

When parsing static XML files and sending the correct if-modified-since header
the server returns 304 but the XMLHttpRequest status returns undefined. In
synchronous mode 304 is returned.

Secondly setting a null value in the content method seems to make a difference.
According to http://developer.apple.com/internet/webcontent/xmlhttpreq.html
this value is optional. 

With null filled in there’s no traffic anymore between the browser and the
server (tcpflow shows this clearly) and the status code varies from undefined
to -1007. There must be some internal caching in this case.
