Question

i am calling an api on click of a button. the issue is that the code works as expected in crome while it doesn't in firefox. I checked that there is no error in console in firfox.

Intresting thing is that if i have firefox develper tool opened in the browser then the request is hitting the controller , however if i close the developer tool and then make a request , it's not hitting the controller actionmethod

What I have tried:

<script type="text/javascript">
		$(document).ready(function () {
			$(document).off('click', '.btnSave').on('click', '.btnSave', function (e) {
				$.post("/api/ReturnRequestApi", { ReturnRequestId: $("#Id").val(), ReturnRequestStatusId: $("#ReturnRequestStatusId").val() })
				.done(function (data) {
					
					window.location.href = "/Admin/ReturnRequest/List";
				});
			});
		});
	</script>

there is a firebug add in to firefox that lets you debug javascript. You might want to try that to see if that helps you spot anything.

firebug is of no use here. it is not even able to detect if there is a script on page. only through developer tools i can see this.

hmm, that odd. What version of Firefox you using?
On Firefox, did you see any error message on the Console tab? Press F12, click on the console tab and then trigger the API call. Check the Network tab also

There is no error on console. may be because the page is getting redirected after the request is made. Can't find the option to preserve log in firefox developer tools so that i can see the errors even after redirect

One interesting thing is that api request is being made if developer tools are open :p

have you try to post with different parameters value and see how it behave?

Not really coz only ReturnRequestId will change , ReturnRequestStatusId will remain same. Even if the values change , request is not hitting the controller action method.

if its working while developer tools is enabled, plz check using fiddler, see if its making a request or not. To verify step by step, try using ajax beforeCall
