Basic authentication cache is not being cleared from the firefox browser with using JavaScript code when tries to override Uname,PWD and with response Http 401
Hi, I am trying to implement logout functionality for Basic authentication for our internal application with the below script.
function clearCache(){
var ua= window.navigator.userAgent;
if(ua.indexOf("MSIE") > 0){
document.execCommand("ClearAuthenticationCache");
return true;
}else{
$.ajax({
url: '<%=request.getContextPath()%>/pages/PeleLogout.jsp',
username: ' ',
password: ' ',
statusCode: { 401: function() { //alert('Logged Out')
}
}
});
return true;
}
}
This function is working properly when deployed in my local tomcat server, but it is not working after deploying in WebSphere6.1 server..
