Symptoms

FUNCTIONALITY:
------------------------
Using browser side javascript code of Siebel UI Client to invoke external web service using AJAX javascript API and the "XMLHttpRequest" object.

Code examples:

  
* * *

ERROR:
-------------
The javascript does not return HTTP status code of the HTTP request (such as "200" for successfully completion) but just the "0"

 Also text of the response was not available - was returned as "" - empty string.

However network traces confirmed receipt of succesfull HTTP 200 response with correct HTTP Response body (payload).

EXPECTED:
-----------------
The HTTP response code and response text can be obtained in javascript running within Siebel Client page.
