javascript - How can I send a http delete request from browser?

Question

Is there a way to send a DELETE request from a website, using xmlhttprequest or something similar?

Answer 1

As someone mentioned above, jQuery will do this for you, via the following syntax:

$.ajax({
    type: "DELETE",
    url: "delete_script.php",
    data: "name=someValue",
    success: function(msg){
        alert("Data Deleted: " + msg);
    }
});
